That is a shame.
I'm assuming it applied only to New car sales?
Or did it also apply to used cars?
Totally agree on the sliding scale, maybe even sliding scale + $ credit/ fine on window sticker (or sticker on window sticker).

It would be difficult to use actual mileage, vs EPA #'s, but that sure as heck would be awesome.

My "new" EPA #'s are 35, 44. Once (when I first got my Golf) I decided to do a worst case Fuel economy tank. I drove like a total jack ass, hard launches, stop and go's lots of idiling etc etc. I got 42 mpg. Now tell me how they got 35 mpg?
