    Newly proposed regulation will close the loophole that has been allowing family cars to be regulated like trucks when it comes to emission standards. A good thing to do.

      You have no problem with giving children the freedom of choice to mutilate themselves, but you want to dictate what people may drive?

      Sure you've got your priorities right?

        The auto industry is very important in this country.

        Repeated attempts to damage or destroy it are short-sighted and very stupid.

        This has to stop, or at least be given some reasonable thought that allows for a gradual transition.

        Of course the same goes for the oil industry.

          Horrible idea. Like the assault rifle, how does one define an SUV? Even if they could it would be a horrible idea.
