Don't get me wrong...I LOVE power but then there is overkill too. If DCX can sell it great for them but it will be a small margain of sales for those high end cars...especially if gas prices keep sky rocketing...DAMN GREEDY OIL COMPANY'S!!!
HP has nothign to do with money at the pump. The Corvettes make 425 hp and get 30+ mpg.
Your right foot has everything to do with money at th pump however.
I make more than 100 rwhp and 150 rwtq more than stock in my truck and get the same MPG, (with 4.56 gears now too) as a stock truck.

And yes, Oil companies suck!
