You also dont know what each vehicle was getting for milage . Does your lovely window sticker say what the vehicle gets at 80 mph?

So does it get worse mileage at 80 then at 60.  If they limit the highway speeds they see a huge reduction in emissions

The one that burned 4 created 77.68 lbs of co2.  The one that burned 3 gallons created 58.26 lbs of co2.  Now you know why they may limit vehicle ice vehicle speed.  Easy reduction attainable in ghg emissions.

And how many days after they do will it take for tuners to hit the market? Face it, people like going fast. It's fun and it gets you there quicker. The average person dosnt give 2 fucks about $3

If we limited the amount of people coming into this country and driving we could do the same.

Diesel tuners are paying a price for tuning.  And with connected vehicles a tuner isn’t going to do much.  I’m sure your vehicles have modems….  Heck all our xl f550’s at work have factory modems that connect the vehicles to ford.

God you are dumb as fuck.

Simple case scenario.  Worse is not relevant.  The ratio is.  Since you are obviously too dumb to get that here are some scenarios.

Does a car going 10mph get twice the mpg as one going 20?

Does a vehicle going 40 get 3/2 the mileage of one going 60?

Does a vehicle going 80 get 1/2 the mileage of one going 40?

If you can't prove and answer all of those statements as valid or better then your whole premise is an assumption of faith and not fact.

my RAM with MDS puts the HEMI in ECO mode, (drops 4 cylinders so less Co2), when it's up to speed depending on where I go my V8 HEMI is averaging 21.5 mpg which is good for a full sized truck so your argument is moot, but by all means carry on

No speed limiters.  More govt control like this that the people accept the more and more that will be imposed.
