Not agreeing you need to return to reality, but you do need to really realize reality CAFE was a huge problem back in the 90's. GM was struggling to get enough people to buy small cars then just as they are today.

Also in the end, the good old B-car sales were pretty much in the toilet. The only real volume was police cars and even that wasn't enough to keep the plant running. It did, however, spur some discussion on a private party purchase of the plant and B-car design to just build police cruisers.

Now on that note, I did see a Roadmaster wagon this past weekend with some pretty nice wheels that made me go hmmmmmmmm
