Kinda surprised Honda didn't make the list.

Good for Ford though. Still waiting on the 400 hp 1/2 ton that gets 30mpg from anyone.......

I think this is for factories and offices, not products. Its still good that Ford is listed. Way more energy is used for heating and airconditioning buildings than is used for transportation. That is why I dont understand the big political deal about auto emissions and not a peep from the politicians about where most of the energy is actually being wasted.

Thats fair enough - but you must respect others in that they don't believe that to be the case, and that is what this forum is for
