Bring on the Chevy Volt

Actually, I'd settle for having access to the 65 mpg Ford Fiesta that Ford sells in Europe.

Oops. It's diesel. Therefore, Americans can't buy it, and places like CA tax the snot out of it. Between state taxes and federal taxes, the government has priced this car out of being viable for Ford to sell this in US markets.

Unfortunate, because it's cleaner than regular unleaded cars.
