[Considering Daimler got a 30 million dollar fine](http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/31/nhtsa-releases-06-cafe-fines-daimler-chrysler-takes-cake/) under the CURRENT regs I doubt they’ll simply be able to carry on with business as usual under the new CAFE requirements. If they do expect some real big gas guzzler taxes on their vehicles.
