When I was in the states a couple of months ago I remember seeing an advert for the right to exploit more the US' oil and gas reserves. In it a man is seen filling his car up at the petrol pump and he says 'If I'd known the price of gas was going to go up so much I would've thought about buying a more efficient car'.

Hello!?!?! Would someone really go to car dealers and say 'Excuse me, could you show me the car that gets the shittiest gas mileage?'.
