It's long and has lots of big words, but does provide some answers, although it doesn't make Ford out to be the evil bad guy, so you might not like it.

"The EPA says it's working to update it tests to make them more realistic.
But given Obama's decision to force cars to get an average of 54.5 mpg in less than 12 years, automakers will be even more tempted to design to the test, rather than the real world, thus adding to the consumer deception."
Ya it sucks that modern cars get great gas milage. I would rather have cars getting 16-20mpg with gas at $3.00-4.00 a gal any day.
