What the 78% don’t get is that that kind of legislation would totally transform the American roadway. TDI Jetta’s would be the big baller cars. Civics and Corrollas would be considered “big” by the new standard. The road would be crammed full of festivas and aveo’s. No more trucks. The price of homes and the like would skyrocket as contractors could no longer afford their work truck fleets. I’ve been to countries where everything is a 40mpg+ car (only it was because gas is >$6/gallon) and everyone drives these little peugots and fiats. Not saying that it’s bad, it just wouldn’t work in this country.
