Re: any fuel economy data on the 6.4?

[ QUOTE ]
So I wonder, if we hadn't been chasing lower emissions, if we'd have the efficient cars we have today with only fuel prices as an incentive for the manufacturers to change?

What if the EPA had legislated fuel economy above all else? Where would we be now?

Diesels have dropped around 20-30% fuel efficiency since the mid 90s. What if it had went the other way?
