I don't think anyone will disagree with you there. The thing is the government isn't limiting our choices. The burden is being put on the industry as a whole with a new set of standards. Personally I think our hot rods will be around for a long time to come. We may have to pay a price for them, but they will be there for the taking. There will be a time when all dino fuel engines will no longer exist, and the people in that time period will look back at us and say "WTH were those mooks thinking" ...
