We've all heard the negative references to "gas-guzzling SUVs" and Americans' "reliance on foreign oil," the inference being that folks living in the U.S. drive too much, and drive vehicles that get horrible gas mileage. Besides the fact that Americans were essentially forced into the driving lifestyle by careless strip mall planning, would you believe that the federal government is also responsible for intentionally keeping truly fuel-efficient cars off the market?

Duhmericans do drive too much and in guzzlers to boot. And they could do a far, far better job of living close to the things they most often do... if it wasn't so far down on their lists.
I agree that the Feds keep some nice vehicles out, like keis and some diesels and of course Honda SuperCubs.
