So that's it then. That's what the cash for cars thing was all about. All those perfectly acceptable, but maybe not quite as efficient cars got crushed so that we would all have to have these things.
That whole 'scandal' with volkswagen with the skewing the MPG data, Harley Davidson was doing it too. But they got to sneak under the radar because bikes are fairly fuel efficient, and it was an american company.
Again, every single minute with my '83 toyota is a blessing. I can fix anything on it with a hammer, a wrench and a screwdriver. I'm gonna baby that little shitbox.
Harley Davidson was also less obvious because they weren't diesels, when diesels had become practically illegal at the casual consumer level due to the newer exhaust requirements being unlikely to be met without an expendable chemical scrub.
