Just for the recent EV pushing regs to become law.
Just wait for the recent EV pushing regs to become law.
The EPA is not a power the federal government was ceded by the constitution. It needs to be shut down. If everybody thinks it is such a great idea, use the amendment process to give the federal government that authority. Otherwise, it’s null and void.
I’m at the point where getting in and out of a low slung sedan is a challenge. Sedans can be a relative bargain compared to SUVs, and there are a bunch I’d like to own, but age has ruled most of them out.
Most modern SUVs are about the same size and stature as 1930’s and 1940’s sedans.
Oh boy am I glad I don’t know what the ‘New Republic’ is. Some news paper or magazine I am unaware of.
Btw your post title reminded me of this song:
EPA rules killed off small light truck sales in the U.S. Imagine the nerve of American citizens not doing what the EPA wants them to! Imagine car companies trying to sell vehicles their customers are willing to buy instead of what the government thinks they should buy! Americans are the worst!

If you are an old timer, then you would remember when station wagons were everywhere, alongside sedans. Then the government intervened with exorbitant fees on station wagons. Then all of a sudden, station wagons disappeared in favor of vans and light trucks that were not subject to the extra taxation. Boom! No more station wagons. Notice now the prevalence of hatchback sedans, and how they resemble the old station wagon? But don't call them that! More government interference and now our builders are pushing trucks on us, and no longer make sedans here.
Don’t blame the car manufacturers on this. The Democrats knew EXACTLY what would happen; this is how they killed the station wagon off.
Yes. The only vehicle you can get is Truck or SUV.
E.G GM makes only one normal car - the Chevy Malibu.
There are also Corvette and some Cadillac(s).
Other carmakers lots are similar - Trucks, SUVs.
naaa, it all started when they killed off the stationwagon, for our own good of course...
Our last three vehicles have been SUV’s, and EPA rules had nothing to do with why we bought them. In fact, two of them were bought before 2012.
The Lefties at the New Repuclic (which 30-40 years ago was not so far Left) just can’t believe that automakers were simply responding to changes in what people wanted.
Everything the feral government touches turns to poop.
Women also find the AWD function reassuring.
Since many cars are leased first, the dealer can sell a previously leased SUV.
Out here in the great
expanses of west Texas/
eastern New Mexico,
there could be as much
as 200 miles between
services. EV’s simply
won’t work for ranchers,
or those in the oilfield
industries. You’re going
to spend more time
charging your EV than
working. And things get
much worse during the
cold weather months.
