A Smart Choice * USA - Cherriots' clean-diesel buses
Salem,OR,USA -The Statesman Journal -February 13, 2008: -- Regarding Cherriots' shift to clean-diesel buses, clean-diesel buses are not more expensive to operate... Our natural-gas buses cost 15 cents per mile more to operate. The only cheaper cost for natural-gas buses is fuel. All other costs are more expensive, including the enormous capital investment that must be made just to fuel these buses.

All diesel buses will meet these standards in 2010 as well...
