You must not live among these people. Automakers won't need to change anything, they'll just keep selling gas guzzling pick up trucks. The clowns around these parts have been successfully brainwashed to believe buying less gas/spending less time at the gas station is a liberal commie trans plot and definitely unpatriotic. I desperately wish I was kidding.
