I don't agree with your contention (or Frank's) that the industry routinely dramatically exaggerated fuel mileage claims in 1982.

You must remember that first set of EPA ratings back then... the little cars were rated at 40-50+ mpg and there was no way in hell anyone out in the real world was going to get that. Then the EPA revised their ratings and things got real. Basically I'm saying I think the last gen EPA ratings were about as accurate as we could hope for.
