    They'll just fix the smog problem with another software fix. Chrysler, Kenworth, and Peterbuilt are working on a software fix to reduce CO2 and smog emissions to beat the Volt. These days, it seems like you can fix everything with a software fix .. even a poorly designed antenna on your cell phone. :eek:

    (entire comment above is sarcasm - I am not aware of Chrysler, Kenworth, or Peterbuilt working on smog software fixes)
