They should redesign the entire thing and just do a point system. You got a low .cd ? Have some points. A nice cvt in this year's model vs the old 4 speed auto? Points. Cut weight, redesigned mirrors. Ect.

This needs to stop my grandfather has a brand new Malibu a 4 cylinder and gets 18mpg. Epa says 23-29 he doesn't speed or drive crazy just normal lightfoot driving. Not a hypermiler but he should get decent mileage. He will upshift the automatic into 6th at 45mph. Still 18 mpg. Tires are good. Everything is good. The epa allowing cheating is not.
