    sounds good to me although I doubt the heavy vehicles (luxury, large pickups and the large SUVs) will ever break 35mpg unless they go on a serious diet.

    The only thing I say to this is "Pathetic"... if that is the highest we can set our goals then we definitely need some new leadership in America... to be honest Im not sure if either party can deliver on that leadership but I KNOW that the republicans cannot... so if each party has a 50/50 chance to deliver and one party is at zero, then that leaves us with a 25% chance of success... (at least in the leadership department..) How very sad for all of us...

    It isn't a question of "can't." It's more a case of "won't."

    The Prius parked in my driveway is proof of that.
