    was reading about current admin's new tweak to future MPG regs, and they are significant.

    https://www.usnews.com/news/politic...rising-to-38-mpg-in-2031-under-new-biden-rule

    I worry for my grandkids who will begin driving over next 5 - 15 years. Thinking I should buy a solid NA non-HEC non-BEV vehicle now to hold for them, just some solid beater to get them to work and friends... Thoughts on models to consider? or am I worried for no reason... I've only ever driven trucks for the last 40 years.
