Bull shit. US consumers do not dictate that car companies make ugly ass cars that are pure crap with poor gas mileage. US consumers have been eating up the Asian brands for years that have style, comfort, and good gas mileage. US consumer demand is already there, add some proper marketing and you have a monster.

I have never met one person that said "I'm only buying cars with 10 MPG, I owe it to the oil companies!"
