The only way it's cutting fuel consumption is by driving more companies into bankruptcy. My truck runs like #### on that garbage fuel they're foisting on us.

Less trucks on the road. That's their twisted logic. And actually, that's due mostly to the economy. Here they are taking credit for something they had nothing to do with. It's more like: Fuel consumption cut despite the bungling efforts of the EPA.
