> Because they use surveys to see what we want, "Targeting by age, the survey found that 50 percent of people between 18 and 29 years in age and 46 percent of those between 30 and 41 would consider buying or leasing a new clean diesel car. "

Show me the survey.

I’m looking for the actual survey, but here’s a link that say it was done with a more than 1,000 Americans. Once if find the survey I’ll post the link so you can see the questions.
