I guess I have seen a very useful blog tester at http://newfileengine.com/
Sorry, I don’t remember the name- just use the search.

Yea, but. . . Honda’s record speaks for itself. It’s environmental bona fides, in relative terms, are formidable, especially when compared to GM and Detroit generally. If Honda had just been responding to the market, it would have been much more aggressive with its SUV/pick up line. Instead, it went the other way. In my view, Honda’s a market-mover, not follower.

The quote “We want to make Honda the company that society wants to exist” sound’s noble until you realize that’s exactly the same thing, to paraphrase, that GM said to justify the Hummer. Isn’t that just listening to the market?

Honda was also named the greenest automaker for the 4th year in a row in last year’s Automaker Ranking by the Union of Concerned Scientists: http://www.ucsusa.org/assets/documents/clean_vehicles/autorank_brochure_2007.pdf
