"Note you suggested more than just VW, the entire industry." I see you're not alone in thinking my joking "line them all up against the wall" comment was intended to be taken seriously. Someone said, "everybody's doing it", and I meant to imply, "well, everyone who is doing it should be investigated and punished". I did not mean "everyone who ever sold a car should be put out of business". I can't blame you for making that assumption, since others have made it, too. So, apologies for not being clear. I have no desire to see every car manufacturer closed down. Only the ones that have committed crimes on a level similar to Volkswagen (or worse, if there are any who've done worse things). In fact, I would like for the honest ones, the ones that are sincerely working on cleaner technology and accurately representing it in the market, to be able to compete in a market free from cheaters like Volkswagen. If some automakers are cheating, and some are playing fair, the ones playing fair are effectively fighting with one hand tied behind their backs. They're virtually guaranteed to lose market share to the cheaters over time. That's the kind of screwed up market that no honest person wants to compete in.
