well as you said, things will change in 09. Look at the world gas prices. NA is finally going to produce good quality Diesel and lot more car companies are finally going to bring thier diesel engines over.
In 09 Honda is going to produce the CRV+ accord Diesels.
We got MB already producing bluetech
BMW is coming with TD's as well
There is always the WV TDI's
Cadilac's got the new 2.7L Turo Diesel.
Jeep's got the 3.0L Diesel
Now we need Ford to step up to the plate and bring me the Focus TDii :)

I'm inclined to agree with Mo. Had there been a turbo-Diesel Escape, I would have been all over that! Memories of Land Cruisers, anyone?
