I had seen some evidence of this type of manipulation before, but Jim Stone does a good job at laying out how ludicrous it is. If you drive a car in the U.S. or Canada, you could be getting over 50 miles per gallon with ease, but instead you're probably getting half that, and it's all to make you struggle more, make the rich richer, and help turn the U.S. into a third world nation. If there's a hot topic that can help wake sleeping citizens up to the thievery going on, this is probably it. Please share with friends and family to get the word out. Below are excerpts from Jim's report.

50 plus MPG cars not allowed in the U.S. or Canada
The following report is intended to be a wake up call for the American people. There are no tricks here, such as quoting imperial gallons, referencing tiny cars, electric cars, or even hybrids. These cars are straight up 50 plus mile per gallon winners which are banned for sale in the U.S., and if you think you can bring one home, think again, in America such cars are allowed a 30 day visit upon crossing the border, after which if they are found on American soil they get impounded and if not immediately shipped out of the country thereafter they are destroyed.
Lets get started
With a combined mileage of 52.8 U.S. mpg and an even higher highway mpg, the Urban Cruiser SUV crossover by Toyota, which is a European version of the Scion XD features front wheel drive for the ultimate mileage and if you are willing to sacrifice and get the 4 wheel drive version, you will suffer in life with a combined mileage of 48 mpg.
With a highway mileage of 56 mpg per U.S. gallon, the Nissan Qashqai SUV crossover would be sure to make any carbon tax junkie shiver with dread. Fortunately the American version delivers only 26 highway mpg (22 combined) so the local carbon tax tyrant can rest easy.
With 78.5 imperial miles per gallon highway, the 1.6 blue motion TDI Volkswagen Passat wagon is definitely forbidden in America, where in the smaller American gallons it would deliver a carbon tax blood curdling 65.4 highway mpg.
This is the 261 MPG Volkswagen I mentioned a few months ago.... It ended up getting ridiculed for only achieving a combined mileage of 160 MPG in U.S. gallons (192 combined in Imperial gallons), but come on now, at that point, WHO CARES. Even at 160 MPG combined, which means the highway mpg is well into the 200's, this particular car exposes the fuel mileage lie so harshly that there is absolutely no recovery or hiding from the truth, even Europeans are getting scammed at 65 mpg while Americans are getting more than raped.
Ever heard of a 74mpg Cadillac sized family sedan that is not a hybrid and has no power plug? Not on the American market but this car does exist. And it proves that hybrids are a scam. This 2013 Seat Toledo is close to the same size as the 2013 4 door Cadillac CTS and it gets an astonishing 74 mpg with what by all accounts is just an ordinary engine.
Americans need to stand up and demand the government to stop censoring search results to prevent Americans from learning the truth elsewhere. Americans need to stand up and call the government on the carpet over the lies that "40 MPG can be achieved in the future" all the while even American car companies such as Ford are producing 65 plus MPG cars for sale on foreign markets right on American soil. It is time to end the lie, and tell these scamming frauds in our government to STICK IT.
Comments
I'm very surprised the US Government is not helping the US car manufacturers (who make some - maybe all - of these vehicles in the US for export) and ensure these vehicles are available for purchase and use in the US!
And with mileage like that they must also be good (or better) for the environment!
Obviously, the oil kings - who are they again? - have a much stronger hold on the government than the car manufactures!
Shame!
Ford Focus makes a model here for England that gets 124 mph, We are under such great control. How is it even possible to have kept this a secret for so long, I heard about it a year ago.
