Too little, too late...

Whoppee! The US government gets its head of its *ss and signs a new fuel mileage bill:

Ok, so by 2020 US autos have to have a mandatory mpg of 35. Big deal. By then, the Japanese, who already MAKE cars with this kind of fuel economy will RULE the US car market. :shifty:

Secondly, hybrid cars will far surpass 35mpg within the next few years. :up:

So, what's the point of this bill anyway? :damn:

Taking a wild guess here:
To john and jane Q Public: "See! We're doing something!"
To whatever lobbiests this concerns: "See! We have your interests in mind!"
