I can't really blame Toyota though, they are playing by the same rules as everyone else. When you see the ads for big SUVs claiming great hiway mileage under the most absolute ideal conditions, what good would it do Toyota to say that "Yes, our new Hybrid Camry might get the same mpg in the real world under some conditions". And even if they did, people that don't understand the flaws in the current system probably won't appreciate the comparative value of being told the truth either.
