Re: Cut the bullsh!t... it's about time

Hm, clearly you don't know how mpg figures work if you think those are actual, in-use figures...

I come darn close to the EPA mpg rating on all my cars. The point being is that Ford / GM / Honda don't cripple your car or f*ck with the car after you buy it and drive it down the road. You sell something you don't screw with it, impose regulations on how the user can drive the car, where they can drive it, or who travels with them. You see ISP's doing this all the time.

This is my point and ethics would say that I'm also on equal ground here.

Hmm, that used to be the case. However, starting in 2008, they are much more realistic. That is why all the MPG ratings went down in 2008. They are now pretty close.

Ah, my mistake then- the car I drive most often is a few years old and so probably has the inflated figures, good to see they're fixing that system.

I don't know why, but I actually fair 2 MPG better than the EPA rating... Go figure.
