Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
These numbers reflect the most recent data as of June 2010. They do not include trailers (as they do not increase emissions) or boats. Until 2009, Toyota leased Tufts 5 Electric Rav-4's. Unfortunately, Toyota requested them back in 2009, although Tufts wished to keep them. B5 Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (5% biodiesel) is used in all Medford based diesel fueled vehicles. The one electric vehicle is an electric tractor mower called the “Electric Ox”.
