That's about the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

The 4-cyl saves you, at most, 5mpg over the V6. At 12,000 miles a year and
$1.50 gas prices, times 50% of our gas comes from Alaska, etc. and is not
imported: $60 difference. Over the life of the car you'll spend between
$300 and $600 more on fuel. Is that really worth it to satisfy your little
political squabble?
