Car industry calls for 95 octane gas at 50 cents more a gallon to improve fuel economy. I'm shocked that big auto supports the oil and gas industry.

Yes jalopnik is my source.

The car industry trying to find a way to force people into buying newer models of vehicles. I'm surprised you're surprised.

Actually, I think they're trying to make it easier for themselves to comply with ever increasing CAFE standards that were raised to extreme levels by the previous administration with the intent of eventually killing off fossil fuel powered vehicles.greenblood said:The car industry trying to find a way to force people into buying newer models of vehicles.

I will give you credit for being consistent, but fer chrissakes. What part of ever increasing to extreme levels don't you understand? GW increased the standards to 35 MPG for cars and light trucks. Obama ramped that up to 54.5 MPG.2001400ex said:

Obama Administration Finalizes Historic 54.5 MPG Fuel Efficiency Standards -
And Trump wiped out Obama's standards
More winning -
Does this mean I won't be able to still pick up my $9.98 race fuel for my car that gets about 10 mpg?

By 2025, the EPA noted, new cars and light trucks on the road would average about 36 miles per gallon on the road under Obama’s proposed rules (you sometimes see this reported as 54.5 mpg, but that’s a different metric). The standards would add about $875 to the average sticker price of new models, but consumers would save roughly three times that much in lower fuel costs over the lifetime of their vehicles.Southerndawg said:
