This is what Ray LaHood rolled up in to reveal the new fuel economy stickers:
U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood unveiled new fuel-economy window stickers for cars and trucks, saying "we're not just sitting around waiting for high gasoline prices to come down." His ride of choice to the unveiling: This 12-mpg Chevy Suburban SUV.Except that it's not 12-mpg. For security reasons, bureaucrats at the highest level drive around in armored SUVs that are shielded from the possibility of EMPs (electromagnetic pulses) by replacing the fuel injection system with a carburetor. It gets 7-mpg. Maybe.
