EPA Grading Cars Can't Work


From Crunch Gear.


The EPA is revising the window stickers seen on new cars to more accurately reflect the capabilities of electric and hybrid vehicles. They’re also proposing, rather boldly, that a big fat letter grade head the sticker, ranging from A+ (for plug-in electric vehicles) to D (for Veyrens and R8's)


How can the EPA expect the younger buyers of vehicles to even know what "A", "B", "C" and "D" stand for. Most students taught today do not get letter grades anymore from the union teachers in school.

It's going to back fire on them, For those that still remember letter grades, what are the ones that graduated with all "D's" supposed to do. They will buy the gas guzzling SUV's and trucks because that is the only letter they know! Then the government will raise their taxes for buying such a vehicle. The poor children can't win. The superior intellect of government today.

Will the EPA now tell teachers across the country to go back to giving grades with letters A to D? That might be an improvement!
