The chicken tax is why we don't have the new small little trucks anymore and a lot of things we loved.
You will hear a lot of other reasons on the web and at YouTube as to why we don't have the new little trucks anymore.
EPA and CAFE are just a few examples....it's smoke & mirrors and lies.... it's the greed that goes way back to the 60's.
Foriegn auto makers still make the smaller trucks but don't export them to the US because of the stupid laws.
Even Chevy and Ford discontinued the S10 and the small Ranger and go bigger to meet the stupid CAFE and
EPA standards.
Listen to the videos at YT and Wikipedia below on what foreign auto makers did to try to get around the Chicken Tax, the stupid reasons why trucks are bigger now and why we can't have the small mini-trucks anymore even from
Chevy and Ford here at home in the US...
Toyota and Nissan manufacture cars and trucks in the US and supply plenty of jobs for Americans...
this law has created a ripple effect on the global economy...
The chicken tax also killed profits on exporting to the US because it made the profit margin very small.
Foreign auto makers stopped exporting the small trucks to the US.
it's the stupid gov't laws that goes back as far as LBJ in the 60's
