The EPA enabled Automaker lies
So, the EPA is probably going to change their methods for determining the fuel efficiency of automobiles. I say about time. What's sad; however, is the fact that automakers have designed their lines to achieve their best fuel efficiency in EPA laboratories, not in the real world. If consumers had known the truth about just how fuel inefficient their automobiles were, there probably would have been a lot more consumer interest in diesels and hybrid vehicles in America much sooner. For the last decade or two, we could have been fighting our foreign oil dependency, instead of increasing it at an obscene rate. Thanks Congress! More on the EPA's Fuel Economy Testing and Hybrids.
