But that's the whole point of the Ford/Toyota venture.They will exceed the mileage and then some.Suckers nothing.....this venture will actually produce engines that make the TDI look like a guzzler.Screw German engineering,wouldn't you rather see US made cars outperforming VW in the fuel economy category?
Currently other than the TDI motor VW's suck.

Ford didn't take any bailout money.
The rest literally begged for bailout money.

Ford has all those cushy government contracts which probably helped.

Doesn't hurt that the F-series pickups have out sold every other
pickup in it's class since the early 90's and is the only one that
has increased sales since 2008.
They make a great truck.

Wrong wrong wrong. The new eco boost engine is well into the twenties and the ranger is nit a guzzler. The biggest pigs out there are the super duties but what do you expect.

Not true. Golf tdi gets 30 city, 42 highway averages about 40. The prius drivers I know get overall 44. Consumer reports rates tdi 38 prius 44. Some people report higher in both. The golf is more expensive than a prius. Diesel is more expensive. Overall a prius is much cheaper to own and less emissions. The civic hybrid is about equal to a tdi, though again it is cheaper.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.
