But as Redpoint points out, what if a company just wanted to make medium duty trucks targeted at say a 15,000 pound tow rating and a 3000 pound payload with 4wd and aggressive off road ability. No way they are going to be able to meet those cafe requirements. That company will have to be absorbed by a big corporation or build something else they don't want to. The big makers would be allowed to because they can average the heavy duty off road versions to their plumber 2wd v6 contractor specials.

Kenworth and Hino don't count as they are outside the laws as they already got a carve out. So that means this specialty company in my example has to try and shoot for a loophole and make their product even bigger. Just let companies make what consumers will buy, it works every time it is allowed.
