It may seem straightforward enough, but I can't help but notice how this is misunderstood...I don't fully understand it...Corporate Average Fuel Economy...

...What is the formula Car-Makers must adhere to?...Based on sales? Based on what is offered?...An average of all cars, trucks, suv's combined?...Higway mileage? Street Mileage?....

...What is it now?...What will it be?....Everyone seems to have a simple answer, but it seems to me it's not that simple...dunno?

Please don't make this political....No-one likes it (whatever it is)....Let's just go with it as is, not try to make it non-existent, or wish it never happened...just objective, factual, how is it figured...

Seems like CAFE is always some big mystery, problematic, disastrous monster that rules the day...Whether you like it or not, I would just like an explanation to what it all entails, and what it holds for the future that we now know it will be...

...This may be Mission Impossible, but I thought I'd give it a try here as it seems to come up more often than not while discussing the 6thGen...

If this thread turns to crap, mods please just close it or delete it...

Thanks, Tom
