Up here a some of the car manufacturers do a lot of cold weather testing on their upcoming models. Dodge/Chrysler is the biggest and most visible one.

Well, this morning I saw the usual wagon train of them and they were minivans. As I passed the leader I noticed written in grease pen on the rear window above the filler hole, "Diesel". I didn't get a chance to scope it out, however these guys pretty easy to find.

I'll keep you posted if I find anything. Just thought it was interesting.

Nope, wasn't a Benz. Although they do test some sedans here, their groups are always small. This minivan had the distinct chrysler logo on the grill. Also it was the usual dodge/chrysler wagon train. 4-5 + test vehicles in the group. This towns small enough, we'll meet again. I know where a lot of their break/meal spots are. Gonna start carrying the digital camera with me.

Chrysler already makes a diesel Caravan for export only. I wish it was offered here too
