Default RE: Ford, Chrysler irked at feds' potentially biased email

Okay, thank you. After working for the U.S. gov't in the past, from what I was taught they should not be sending out e-mails like that. I would like to see the whole list though of different vehicles. Since they mentioned GM's E85 models and GM was fine with it, I'm assuming that they did not list Chrysler's or Ford's E85 models. If that was the case I can see how they would be upset, not to mention that Ford does offer the hybrid Escape which apparantly was not listed.

The thing that is amusing about this is I remember Car and Driver saying that their hybrid Altima got WORSE fuel mileage than the conventional Altima. I think they should reconsider recommending the Altima hybrid (as well as any other hybrid on the market that they might have recommended for that matter).
