Of course not, because your an ignorant individual.
I love it when some idiot who doesn't know the difference between "your" and "you're" calls someone else ignorant.

>looks like diesel is the answer. Plenty of Euro diesels get 60+ MPG.
>Fiesta diesel already gets 62 mpg, but Ford doesnt think they can sell it here for a multitude of reasons.
I’m a big Diesel fan; I have an `83 Oldsmobile that gets in excess of 35 MPG (~38, last time I ran the numbers).

It sometimes takes longer for some than for others.
But rest assured, you will eventually typo.
Maybe not a big glaring noticeable one, but it will happen.

Geeez. Why don’t you add a Confederate Battle Flag to that collection and really T them off! LOL.
To: Gator113
I should explain that my grandson (who is headed for college next year) bought a Confederate Battle Flag at a fort in North Carolina this summer to hang on his wall (in NY). His mom had to explain that he’d better be very careful where he displays it — it could get him n a lot of trouble at college.
Isn’t that a shame?
To: afraidfortherepublic
Yes. it is certainly a shame, but your wife is right.
I own the flag, but have yet to fly it. I don’t have a “politically correct” bone in my body, yet I have held off, for now, out of my wife’s concern over insulting conservative Blacks. After 38 years, I almost always do what “yes dear” tells me to do. ;>)

I am all for higher gas milage- i would never buy acar with less than 40 mpg- but it wont happen by govt fiat unless they force them to stop addig all the things that drain gas milage and cause them to have to build 6000 pound cars
What business does the govt have forcing people to drive certain types of cars that they think are suitable for us? If people want to drive around in glorified, souped-up golf carts, I have no problem with that. However, I can not think of a practical vehicle for me that gets anywhere close to that kind of mileage and I have no issue at all paying $3.50 or more for diesel fuel for my truck.
What people want to drive is their choice and the market should decide what is produced, not the feds.

I have had 4 little honda civis’s which I love- they get great ags milage and I drive over 50K miles per year so that is why I buy them
I would love to have a hummer and am envious of anyone who does have one.
the government idiots are mandating opposing things- as in all liberal idiot ideas

To: Mr. K
For starters, I didn’t get an answer to my question of why the govt should be making policy that forces people into a certain make/style of vehicle.
I don’t know if I mis-interpreted what you wrote, but from your post I thought that you supported that. My appologies in advance if I am wrong.
I don’t think my additional comments were irrelevant. I’m simply taking a stand that I will not abide by that type of nonsense, and I think the market should decide what is produced. If light trucks were outlawed completely, I’d buy a dump truck or a semi tractor as my daily driver before I ever got behind the wheel of something that looks like it was bred in a petri dish.
