Check out the cost of batteries. Cost of replacement, cost of manufacturing, cost of destroying them...

ex wife had a civic hybrid. replacement battery was 800 supposed to last 5-7 years. although the car did average about 53mpg

i agree with that one.

there are quite a few engines made that run on **** near anything. would be nice if they started offering them as options on vehicles.

or if the govt quit testing emmissions so people could build them themselves.

In TN they hook a computer up to my truck for emissions. If I had a ketchup powered truck (hypothetically), even if the actual emissions were less, I'd still fail.

Thats it. I would bet within 2hours of no one showing up to work that we would see Old George W on the TV begging us to go back to work. But we wont until minimum wage is set to atleast $13-15 per hour and he signs a bill to freeze gas prices until an investigation is done on these greedy oil companies

Ever hear of messicans retard?

We are worried about it as well. The solutions you are suggesting do not work. Lowering the speed limit does work. It worked in the past and will work again.

Just sit home. Our goverment wouldnt know what to do if everyone did that!

They have been having to handle this problem with 50% of the African American race the past 20 years anyway.

So we slow down and all the sudden gas will go down to a dollar a gallon and america will be the greatest place to live.. Get with the big picture

Depends on the state and which tests. I know in Texas as long as carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrocarbons (HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) are within tolerance (up to a certain amount) you will pass.

Once gas hits 10 bucks people are not going to be driving, they will walk, ride a bike, bus, metro etc. Then gas prices will go down. I hope. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif
