Blacklist them! "The Justice Department has launched an antitrust investigation of four leading automakers over an agreement they forged with the state of California to maintain higher fuel efficiency standards than those sought by the Trump administration..." WA Post, 9/7/19. The WSJ suggests other manufacturers could comply by selling fewer (raising prices) on SUVs sold in CA and complicit states.
Ford/Lincoln, BMW, VW/Audi, & Honda have conspired together to only produce crappy little cars that conform with CA's idiosyncratic rules but not the new national standard which will allow the powerful and cheaper cars that we love. Such conspiracies to foist more expensive and more profitable products on us are illegal under the federal anti-trust laws!
Never buy anything produced by these four again!!!! If you see one of their eco-sleds in your parking lot, identify the employee who owns it and send HR on a mission to determine why the owner should not be called into your office and fired for stupidity as demonstrated by buying a piece of crap (not a protected right) manufactured by an anti-American conspirator. BMW, VW, & Honda are obvious suspects but why Henry Ford's company? Probably cause they build little bitty engines with giant turbos already! Anyway, this is a damn good reason to promote and stick with GM.
Also, If you buy one of their vehicle in the future which is more expensive but less desirable because it complies with harsh CA mpg regs despite the more lenient US standards, you have been wronged and will be eligible to participate in a monumental class action.
