Actually... the H2 is ranked 5th.  But it is the highest polluting
gas-powered vehicle.

The main problem is being Diesel. The Diesel still creates far more NOx,
Particulates and other nastiness than gasoline. It is almost like
comparing heating a house with fuel oil as compared to natural gas. The H2
will burn more fuel per mile than the TDI but except for CO2 emissions,
the H2 exhaust will be much cleaner even with all the advance controls on
the TDI.

I'll tell my wife to make sure she idles our V10 Touareg a bit longer
tomorrow morning! ;-p

What is it with the EPA and
Diesels?  Anyone know the CO output of an H2?  I bet you the V10
TDI is a lot lower than the H2...
