Had this pop up on my youtube page http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDxQIHoTmxs&fea...

Its a test done by Inside line, i dunno if its been posted by another member. To sum it up, not only does a 6.2 V8 ford raptor cause less pollution then a fiat 500 and a leaf blower, the fumes coming out are cleaner then the air going in (going by thier test at least)

There's a wiff of BS about that. The leaf blower would not be subject to the same emissions regs as a car/ on highway vehicle.

Pretty sure that those big mofo SUV's are classed as trucks above a certain GVW and are not subject to the same regs as a car and I doubt the Fiat is sold in the US so is not subject to the same regs.
