So in typical lib fashion you put the penalty on the poor and elderly who either can't afford new cars or prefer the size for safety. Of course in your head it's people being piggish and they need to be taxed to conform. Perhaps we need to give vouchers and tax breaks to the poor.

People can afford to buy brand new efficient cars if they get a $5K a year subsidy. That almost pays the car payment on a $20K car. And would accelerate the replacement cycle, which is the point.
