Fuel economy standards for 2014-2018
Fuel efficiency standards for 2017-2025

Benefits projected for the year 2020, like 20% increased efficiency projection for 9 years down the road - when Obama will be long gone from the Oval Office. I'd love to see a statistical breakdown of these pie in the sky, pulled out of the ass numbers.

"Ok - here's what we'll claim. 20% increased efficiency in 9 years. What we won't tell the suckers (voters) is that there will be only a 1% increase total for the first 8 years and then 19% increase in 2020.

And the beauty is we keep the environmentalists off industry's backs for 8 years, and in the 9th year,industry will pump up the campaign donations and we'll "delay" the final 19% increase because we need to do an updated study. My god how the corporate profits will roll in."
