Auto Emissions
The Senate voted Thursday to increase fuel ecomy standards from 27.5 to 35 mpg by 2020 and require 50% of vehicles to run on an 85% ethanol fuel mixture by 2015. A more stringent bill was defeated that would have required an additional 4% improvement in fuel economy from 2020 to 2030. This would have increased the fleet-wide average to 52 mpg!
I think that the writing is on the wall. It looks like we will be seeing a repeat of the 1970s when muscle cars faded away.
The bottom line- get your Challenger ASAP and keep it forever!
