Well no doubt big auto has an amount of influence ($) they can throw around. I'm just saying they aren't going to go out of their way to try and challenge the historical norms of our "car culture" when low FE is more profitable. Whenever the feds want an increase in mpg, the way the big autos frame their arguments is telling.
