Re: Fuel Economy Standards going up
Gas prices are going up although oil prices are going down because of all the additional additives for emissions are costing more. Emissions laws are also causing poorer fuel economy, take the Jeep for example...
The 2006 Wrangler's 4.0L fuel injected 6 cyl has a lower MPG rating than an 87 YJ with the carbed 4.2L.
Meanwhile other sources (factories, trucks, power plants) continue to pollute the air while we pay thrrough the nose at the pump and the impact of the whole automobile emmissions crusade on the environment is merely a political charade paid for by you and I.
