46.8 mpg ?? Bring it on.

Keep in mind that we are talking about CAFE so that 46.8 will really be about 42 in EPA terms and that is fleet average so the trucks (what we are interested in) will likely be a lot lower. Still can you guys think of a useable truck with even 30 mpg on the highway? Thought not.

Their specialty seems to be small engines and low power, something that is hard to sell to us Westerners, heck, we think we need six cylinder engines in our Camrys.
