A short post on why Hybrids are moot...
page: 3share:
which is why monorail in city, passenger train infrastructure cross country is a better long-term solution
steel is not cheap
but it is more plentiful than you think
special lubricants that can only be made from oil and gas, diesel, and ethanol used for farming- not racing cars
the middle class is getting triple squeezed here, the nuclear plant shut down and now we have to buy electricity at a higher rate; the jobs are getting lower and lower paid because of illegal immigrants; and heating gas has gone up 40%. so just up the debt and buy a new hybrid car? I think not..... I like the idea of just buying a sub-compact from a rental car lot-USED (or better yet- from the repo yard)
