And the presidents of the big three met w/ the actual pres and it was decided that they were going to enact some new laws that said all veh's must get 30 mpg's plus, remember? It was something like that. Then, all the talk surfaced about the plants closing??? and the camaro taking longer to build? OK, maybe ya'll remember...
Well, with GM needing to increase all it's mgp's per vehicle, because law will come into effect, I see that they are actally starting to do this to all of their vehicles. Now, it's not the same mpgs as what was noted in congress in the bill, but it is close....and if we remember, the clause in the bill stated that if it were unacheivable by a certain year, then they would lower the mpg mark. Well, sounds to me like GM is setting up for this "other" mark.
In other words, GM and the other big three are expected to up their mpg's to something like 35-40 mpgs' per vehicle by the year 2012...or something like that. They know it's not feasible as of yet, so they are doing what they can....meanwhile, they are going to rake in everyone else's business due to being the only ones selling hybrid trucks, etc.
