I don't want any more of big brother making laws to protect the people from themselves. I don't think big brother is wise enough, smart enough to do for people, what people choose not to do for themselves.

On a mileage perspective, the impact on mileage, in my car is low enough that I can't consistently say that it is more than 1-3%. I would far rather people choose to drive more cost effective vehicles, instead. Unfortunately, SUV's and Pickup's are back in vogue, since gas prices are down 20% compared to a month ago.

People sure have short term memories and adaptation intervals.
