    I guess you didn't get the memo. We *never* need to worry about gas mileage, vehicle safety, emissions standards, worker safety, wages, pollution, the environment, climate change, species extinction, pristine national parks, falling bridges, sinking ships, filthy water, or a wombat invasion -- when we have an (R) president.

    Classic trucks are hot now. Rebuild the driveline, and it will be good for another 350.

    Well, obviously your post had no intellectual value.

They use tax money for cleaning up after them. You are a suck up to large corporations and the wealthy. Try living near a refinery.
