Ford F150 is going Powerstroke Diesel

I have a diesel truck and am well pleased with how it works. I also understand the reasoning behind the new tiny diesels and that is fuel economy, not towing performance. With the future fuel economy standards for light trucks something had to be done. What is troubling is the fools in Harrisburg, PA taxing diesel fuel at a much higher rate than gasoline and discouraging purchase of more efficient vehicles.
