I'm well aware of Congress' limited power with regard to regulating interstate commerce. Also, Supreme Court decisions are not amendments to the Constitution and they are not legislation.

A fuel efficiency bill would fall under federal regulation of commerce, because automakers are an insdustry selling a product to the citizens of every state.

One might try to stretch it out to result in that conclusion but regulating interstate commerce does not mean regulating how a product is manufactured.
