What the scientist say is true and logical. Chrysler knows this as well but they are stuck between a rock and a hard place. It takes years for them to turn around this company and in the meantime they need to move vehicles. I think when this gas card idea got approved at their board meeting a bunch of people in the room lowered their heads but what can they do?
I dont blame them.
In 2014 selling gas guzzlers and giving away 2.99 gas cards would be inexcusable

In 2014 it would be perfectly fine if you would just let us drill where the (American) domestic oil supplies are. China's drilling 50 miles off Florida's coast, but because of people like you my gas is sourced from Canada, South America, the Middle East, or worse. Thanks.

I agree. And by the way...
"Damn, scientists are so smart with the math."
"These incentive programs are nothing but promotions designed to grab headlines..."
... so, John, when UCS points out the fallacy inherent to "free gas" programs, it's whining worthy of ridicule, but when you do it, it's hard-hitting news? C'mon.
