There was a thread here a few weeks ago, something to the effect that 1997 and newer diesels would have to have a bi-annual smog check similar to the ones that gassers have now. I can't find the link now.
[rant] The diesels that really need cleaning up are large trucks, off-road (construction and farm) equipment, stationary engines (generators), and railroad locomotives. Diesel cars are a drop in the bucket. The politicians pick on them because we aren't organized and don't have the political influence that the truckers do. Then the politicians can say "we're doing something about pollution." [/rant]
