Obviously engineers at auto companies are not smart enough or maybe they don't actually wan't to make a more efficient vehicle that doesn't in some way make up for money lost on oil savings. Think about it, if everyone uses less oil, then oil is not so profitable unless your make money other ways, EG, electric batteries or fuel cells. Just wait, when they make production cars that get 80-100mpg gas will jump to $25 a gallon to make up for lost profit. Big oil doesn't want economical vehicles and to keep it that way they have most of or government officials in their pocket. Why then would regan roll back the CAFE standard 27.5mpg from 1986-1989, answer: the price of oil was low and greedy oil companies that controled regan had him do it to increase profit. Sh*t, I bet if we didn't have lobbyist interfearing with our govt. we would probably have 100mpg cars by now, if not more fuel efficient cars!
