Oops. Forgot to mention that. I like the idea of raising CAFE to something
like 28mpg. The technology exists to do that, although a lot of people
would stop buying SUVs because the performance would drop off (not that it's
really there to start with).
Well,...those vehicles will meet their demise in a few years, anyway. There
was a bill passed a while back where all the SUV's must meet car emissions
standards rather than those for a truck by the year 2004. I don't see how
they can keep going at the rate they are with those constraints. Chevy is so
behind the times in terms of engine technology, I don't know what they would
do.
