This video has some great graphs in analysis, which I have not seen elsewhere even though i've heard about this topic Many times. It actually shows for specific models which increased in size between generations, what that does to the fuel efficiency targets through time. An automaker might have to invest a lot more to actually keep it the same size. It also discusses how it got harder and harder to make smaller vehicles simply because they would be fined for not meeting the Requirements, so they were axed instead. So something we have heard many times but this brings out some real numbers, which are enlightening.

So while the regulations have helped reduce emission, large share of these fuel savings, produced by the CAFE standards, has been offset by increased vehicle weight and power.  In the United States, our shift toward bigger vehicles has negated over 40 percent of the fuel savings unlocked in the wake of the CAFE standards. That’s a lot of gas!

A question that hasn’t been asked on here before. I’ll start with one, Dodge Journey, it isn’t good at anything aside from being cheap and it comes from a brand known for making terrible cars.

The Mercedes-Benz CLS63 AMG Shooting Brake is one of my dream cars that I want to import some day, but I'm curious how one was spotted in Florida with Montana plates. It was parked up at the hotel for Moda Miami this past weekend.

I cannot imagine the CLS63 AMG Shooting Brake model qualifies for any kind of "Show and display" exceptions. Please educate me!

Curious what the sports car community thinks about this plan? Is there really a market for 5 sports cars from Toyota? If so what does it look like?

Here's my prediction if we really get 5-

GR86- Entry level, lightweight, "pure" Celica- Larger GT coupe, like BMW 4 series MR2- C8 Corvette competitor Supra- Toyota's " Muscle Car" New LFA- Niche Halo supercar

...at 197.7mph. Can't see this record holding for long, but still cool nonetheless and highlights an oft-overlooked great supercar.

For example, the Volkswagen Touareg came in 5, 6, 8, 10 and 12 cylinder options. The Mercedes-Benz G-Class came with the similar (no 10 cylinder but had a 4 cylinder).

Is there some car that was offered with 4,5,6,8,10,12 cylinders for the same chassis?

Great video of hamster. Man I love seeing the boys randomly pop up on Drivetribe to drive/"review" cars.

Not surprised by this lawsuit. I'm sure we've all seen Durangos on the road with partially fried taillights.
