Oh man, I have one to beat them all

In the newest issue of Motor Trend, one reader wrote a letter to the editor complaining of the proposed alternative to CAFE regulations of raising the gas tax. Now I believe there are legitimate points on both sides and debate on the subject is a good way to arrive at the best way to reduce fuel use. But this guy's solution was just...

He proposed mandating a 150 hp maximum limit to ALL cars and trucks, and banning any modifications to make more power.

Now I hate to call someone stupid for one opinion, but really, that is the dumbest proposal I have EVER heard in my life. Makes the whole license plate thing seem like a non-issue now doesn't it?
