It is depressing...thing is that some kind of alternative fueled car needs to get popular first.

I am amazed that some super rich person doesn`t invest in something around that line to produce and sell. If he did it right he'd make so much more.

bmw and gm have the hydrogen vehicles out, but they are an arm in a leg. ever notice only the upper class can afford the fuel efficient, or green products that end up saving you money? irony..

Its a quicker profit with less outlay and a higher % ratio to sell out early to oil companies

Was that gas made out of gold?

Bud I do agree, although I've never seen a price of 3.50+ for one liter if you refere to US dollars

I just rented the movie after hearing so much about it.

Here is pretty much what it is about. It is a real eye opener...not some stupid documentary that uses half-facts. They actually show you pictures of GM destroying brand new electric cars after they won against the State Of California

I realy doubt it, most americans will whine and cry then pay the price. yet scream if you suggest adding pipelines in alaska to pump enough oil to shortfuse the mideast prices or even add more offshore drilling in cali and texas. hell between the 3 states we have enough oil to last 50 years at current consumption, but every year the amount used goes down, so in 50 years we will use ..what 25-20% of todays usage based upon the decline in use over the past 10 years?

making things more costly to get more people to not use it is actualy not a good strategy. most everyone wants a Lamborghini, and most everyone doesnt want a Prius.

Get a Koenigsegg, it can run on environmental fuel and will actually produce more power on that they regular gas

Heck, most cars can be modifed quite easaly to run on E85 (still not 100% ethanol but it might be in the future

They said something to the effect that the reserve in alaska is only enough for a year or two of consumption.
They said in that movie that if they made it mandatory for the car manufacturers to make more economic cars that get around 40mpg then the US would cut the same amount of gas usage.
