i agree with all of that. im not sure that all the technology is shared between companies, but of course a lot of it is. im just saying how the market is changing, at least the way we see cars advertised and the final product we get when we buy one. of course they are holding back and are greedy liars. no secret there. ultimately, if they market a "sporty" car to a potential frugal buyer base, they are expecting to sell more cars then if they boast huge hp with no enticing mpg gains, since fuel is through the roof and the economy is in the toilet. what puzzles me though is that there are a lot of wealthy people who will always buy that fire breathing fuel guzzling monster of a car no matter how high gas goes. and that will account for a lot of if not majority of sales?? idk government sucks man
