             Article Title: GM's Move to Sue California Over rules On Emmissions Leaves Auto Makers Split.
             On Friday February 23, General Motors Corp. filed a law suit in California Superior Court against the state Air Resource Boards that by 2003 all cars and light trucks sold or leased in California by big manufacturer's emit no pollution. Ford Motor Co. and Daimler Chrysler AG decided not to endorse GM's legal efforts. GM says that the new standards and are both economically and technologically difficult to meet. Air boars officials felt that they were not being unreasonable, and that GM should rely on their engineers rather than their lawyers. This suit can have large impact because other states have already agreed to the same emission rules as CA. Ford issued a statement that it was prepared to meet the requirements and that they are headed in this direction anyway by promising to try to improve the gas mileage on all their sport utility vehicles by %25 over 5 years. Toyota Motors Corp., said they are not planning on taking any part of this even thought they have been arguing the same issues. GM says that they have been trying very hard to clean up the air in CA. They introduced their battery powered car their five years ago, and have supplied electric power transit busses as well. GM says that sales of electric cars has been so small that they might have to resort to selling golf cart like cars. They say they are not being given enough time to meet the standards.
