Listen, Zart, you can have this story. Do a follow up. I know you wanna. :) I'm moving on anyway. Been going through news releases and will probably do another CAFE writeup to counter the propagand..er... info pieces already done here. heh heh hehhh

Of course, none of that changes the fact that AMS came a day early to take away my Camry Hybrid test drive and didn't bring me anything to replace it with. I must have liked that car, I put 470 miles on it in less than a week. :D

I started with this from the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-19402383 From there, you can do a quick Google and find the FIA document with the rules (it's over 80 pages).

Got a big rig that just can't make current emissions standards? Have an old truck languishing in the back lot and in need of an upgrade? KW is offering "glider kits" to allow new drive trains to be put into older rigs, bringing them up to standard and potentially saving truckers a lot of money in taxes and fees.

What a week. I see you guys have been having fun. I now have tech-edited transcriptions with tracked changes of what they really don't want me to quote them on so I am in the process of breaking a massive amount of info down into a couple pieces on Driver Assist tech and two female Ford Techs driving it.

The gist of it is the Fusion now has features formerly found only in luxury cars. And they did the hard way with radar and ultrasonics.
