But if history is any guide, there is one thing he could do immediately: bring back the 55 miles-per-hour speedlimit.

Hogwash is the correct response. Bring back the manual transmisson with 6th gear an overdrive gear. In my 1995 Z28 Camaro, I only turn 2,000 rpms at 65 mph. Oh yeah it runs on mid range octane and goes like stink if I'm feeling frisky.
