The rule would also mandate work vans and pickup trucks to increase their fuel efficiencies by 10% each year, starting in 2030, according to the DOT press release.

Two things: work trucks and vans are needed to do ... wait for it ... work. Work requires energy.

Work = Force X distance

There's only so far you can whittle down the energy and still get work done.

To: Tell It Right

Color me cynical, but I’m guessing these regulators are a bunch of geeks who are tired of hard working guys in pickups stealing their girls, so they’re taking revenge. Just my warped opinion.
