On the surface, one would think that 3 years should have been enough time to develop a reliable fix, but unfortunately "should have been enough" doesn't constitute a guarantee that it really was enough.


Dare I suggest that arbitrary mandates (i.e. that 55 equivalent mpg fleet average matter) can have the effect of bringing techniques to market before they're fully ready for prime time?

You definitely have some points there. Think what bothers me is the actual poll thread, the mods are avoiding the direct subject as to why this and the M6/TM question were not chosen to be voted on. If they reached out to the Camaro Team to feel out whether they would be valid questions at this time, that should be stated. If a popular question was deemed to be "unanswerable" for the time being, let us know. If it is being bumped for another poll data, then post it in the thread. Don't just select the next questions and hope no one notices, because they do. And it negatively impacts the whole purpose of "Ask AL".
