GM's ignition switch scandal and Toyota's recalls didn't hurt global sales even a little (heard that on the news today). VW was on track to become the planet's largest car maker this year. They'll be just fine.

SMH at anyone who cares enough to make a sign and stand out there. It's not a big deal, people. The current car runs cleaner in "cheat" mode than the emission standards from just a few years ago. Make stupid new standards and OMG see how bad everything looks.



non-controversy. If they didn't have to pay it to keep selling cars in the USA, VW would (properly!) thumb their noses at Uncle over this bullshit.

^^^LOL, how did you find that pic of my truck? Mine wasn't that bad, but could black out an underpass when gunned. I was even about to order a plate that said "EPA LOL" before the truck got stolen.
