Or a 15yr old truck from Japan with less than 50k miles. Some of the trucks that come into Canada from Japan are amazingly clean...almost new.

It doesn't matter if this petition won't actually change the law. The point is that based on his own rules and practices if the petition gains more than 100k signatures in the required 30 days President Obama HAS to release a public statement in response. I for one want to hear what he has to say on the matter, and nail him down to an official position. That is the very start and the only way to move forward with getting a legislator to introduce a bill that will change it.
Knowing what the President's official position is will make it easier to people legitimately trying to change this to craft their arguments and strategies, as well as design the legislation to address issues that will come up.
i for one would find it it distressing if the POTUS had the time to give a **** about something as trivial as the 25 year car limit. 5 minutes contemplating this is 5 minutes not spent on something important.
dont forget, things such as this dont always work out like you want. if the timeline is put on the table for change, dont think that those that want to eliminate ALL old cars wont see and push to stop ALL importation of aged vehicles opn the grounds that we dont need more stinky unsafe cars than we already have. just like wile e coyote, when you go and cut the rope on the trebuchet, the rock doesnt always land where you aimed it.
Hey, the government was the first one to give a ******** (enacting this BS rule), so they've made it their problem to address. This is a perfect example of why we should endorse limited government. They tend to get their tentacles into all sorts of crap they have no business dealing with.
if by current you mean since 1787, you would be correct.
