After VW was outed for falsifying environmental data in its cars hundreds of thousand of VW vehicles were taken off the road now sitting in storage sites. Hundreds of thousands of cars now lie in lots in the Mojave Desert, a shuttered suburban Detroit football stadium, and a former Minnesota paper mill in America alone. These vehicles are now in the open slowly breaking down with pollutants entering the environment. Is the the modern cost of corporate greed? What can we do to ensure this never happens again?

Got one. Had it "fixed". Drop in mileage is minimal, no really noticeable difference in performance. Of course, I drive like a miler, and get higher than the original estimated MPG, and +50mpg on road trips. So who is contributing more to Global Warming?
