That's why I cannot understand people who are against improving fuel economy.
agree.
we went to england in 2006. 12 gallons was 100 us dollars think about that.
We have vehicles on the market today that get very good fuel economy. Toyota Yaris, Chevy Sonic, Prius C to name a few. Do you guys drive any if these?
Nobody is against better fuel economy, but people are against artificial increase in fuel costs to force people into smaller vehicles. That's what happens in England and most of Europe.
You want to drive a small, underpowered econobox, you're free to do it and have quite a few models to choose from. Why do you feel everyone else should think like you?
