CAFE standards for cars in '90 was 27mpg. That was 17 years ago. Now, the manufacturers are pushing large SUVs that get 23 mpg instead of 18 or 13 but consumers get to pay a $10k premium. Nice.

This is what happens when big corporations get a free ride. No incentive to improve mileage; more incentive to gain weight and grow bigger and consume more fuel us regular guys could use.
