I have no idea what mileage my 2008 Shelby GT500 gets, nor do I care. There are still enthusiasts out here who value styling, performance and handling.

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.
