Actually, can't they get the milage from the onboard diagnostics. Just download the milage when they do the emission testing.

New cars are not subject to the smog test the first 3 or 4 years.

Your idea, is to simple and logical to even be considered by government operatives. Just think of all the advantages of a GPS system installed in every car:

Higher car costs, will lead to fewer cars
Ability to track all of those who drive excessively and penalize them further.
GPS makers stocks will increase.
Government bureaucrats will need additional workers to monitor all of the GPS tracking of all vehicles.
Increased membership of government worker's will provide additional members for the Democrats.
