If we could clean up all the cars and the car companies are just "too greedy" to put a dang $200 modification into a car, what the HECK is going on in this world?

I have to second lars-ss - if it was that easy, the automotive industry would do it in a heartbeat for competive advantage.
I hear various stories of a 100mpg car under wraps - stuff that would get good airplay on
Coast to Coast with Art Bell. Assuming GM and Ford are conspiring with the oil companies to get us to drive 15mpg vehicles forever (I don't), why doesn't Honda or Toyota introduce the 100mpg car? Some of these conspiracy theories make it sound like Ford has a secret 50mpg F-150, and Toyota
would not introduce it's 50mpg Titan?
