more mpg

"The simplest, most cost-effective way to reduce the United States' consumption of oil is to increase the fuel economy of motor vehicles. Improving the fuel economy of passenger vehicles to an average of 40 mpg would reduce our dependence on foreign oil, cut global warming emissions and save consumers thousands of dollars annually at the gas pump. Detroit has the technology to accomplish this while maintaining the power, safety, and performance that consumers demand."-- Union of Concerned Scientists

The technology already exists to achieve 40 mpg and beyond.

Gas pump savings for consumers will exceed extra costs of fuel-efficient vehicles.

More fuel-efficient cars could significantly reduce our dependence on Middle Eastern oil.

The fuel efficiency of our national vehicle fleet is getting worse – not better.

More fuel-efficient cars = a cleaner environment.



when you look between the lines, you get a good picture of how corrupt and greedy and reckless american companies are. u.s. auto makers have the technology and often supply the technology for better, higher standards in fuel efficiency, allow for longer car life and reliability, and save you money in the long run. yet they refuse to give americans these cars.

why? because we accept whatever they give us without question. we need to start thinking about the future of america. it's obvious they are not.

EPA-EST. 30 HIGHWAY MPG IS PRETTY COMMON AT CHEVY.

this is from chevy. 30 mpg? like that is any good. japan has had cars that have done better than that for some time now. next year chevy will probably announce their 32 mpg!!!!! and take more of your money. and next year they are going to announce the 34mpg!!!!! car and take even more of your money. and after that 35!!!!! and guess what? take more of your money.

it's sickening how american companies hold back technology to squeeze every bit of money you have, and then they act like they are moving forward and making change. it's completely sickening.

you should see how much asia pays for broadband internet and what kind of broadband speeds they have...
