On the other hand, the CAFE Standards are insane.
CAFE standards are insane, and they are definitely why we are seeing cars with very expensive lightweight materials, small displacement turbo engines (that aren't more efficient than NA engines in real world conditions), 10 speed automatic transmissions, and start/stop technology that no one wants. All of that gets very expensive.
I don't think CAFE regs do anything for emissions though. Emissions are yet another way that our government makes new cars and trucks vastly more expensive and less fuel efficient.

I was under the impression emissions devices sap cars of precious MPGs. If that assumption is incorrect, I will admit I'm wrong with my premise.
