...Sierra Club has already dubbed the Excursion a ?suburban assault vehicle? and one of the group's officials described it as ?a garbage truck that dumps its pollution into the sky.? That the new gas guzzler should be a Ford is rather ironic, says Christian. Company chairman William Clay Ford has vowed to make the automaker the leader in developing clean vehicles. Ford's explanation of the apparent Excursion eco-paradox: SUV consumers are not particularly concerned about gas consumption; nevertheless, the vehicle will produce 43 percent less smog than permitted...
