    Sure enough, make smaller trucks and haul less weight and you will achieve 10mpg...

    This just in....Mr. Obama is mandating all states to make all highways (US and Interstate) down grades only, thereby making it possible to achieve his MPG goals.

    More later.

    It wouldn't surprise me if this dumbarse tries something like that. How does he know so much about Interstates? They don't have those in Kenya.

    IF they'd throw the emissions crap out the window you'd get better fuel mileage!
