AN, come on you should know this since you’re a car buff. Some of those hybrids you know aren’t there to improve fuel economy..They’re there to boost power.

I know, all I was trying to say is, there are more hybrid cars than just the Prius. I don’t buy into the whole hybrid fad. The amount of money you save in gas between a hybrid and the same model w/out battery is so minimal that you need 5-7 years to break even from the premium you have to pay. There have been test done on Top Gear that have the latest M3 follow a Prius around the track and the Prius have to go as fast as it can. At the end, the Prius yield 17MPG and the M3 yielded 19MPG. It just shows that driving style makes a big difference too.

I agree that hybrid as a mean to increase more power is just stupid, expensive, and inefficient. We already have forced induction for that. But Toyota is milking the hybrid fad as much as they can, and I don’t blame them. The general American public are gullible and image conscious.

Oil was only up 75 cents today. I’ll take it, but I think the speculators can do better than that. Hopefully we’ll be at $150 by the end of next week.

It’s so funny to watch someone who is clueless shaking the pom poms for higher oil prices.

Be careful what you wish for unless you are going to be comfortable living in a mud hut and digging in the ground for grubs to eat.

Higher oil prices will affect you in everything that you buy on a daily basis. Food, rent, your new high def tv. It will ALL be more expensive. Hopefully you will still have a job to help pay for it all.

I have to agree with Meadandale…be careful what you wish for. If you belive for a second that a more severe hike in gasoline/petrolium prices might improve things, you might be surprised.

Unfortunately, petrol prices are in an upward trend and the winds are against us. For those that read the European news today …Aleksei Miller, Gazprom CEO, said:”Petrolium prices will get to $250/barrel soon & natural gas to $500/1000m3″

The new way to fight America is NOT a direct war but a financial war…..we’re stretch thin & financial troubles are our weakest point today (with wars, financial problems, banking problems…… our people’s morale is tanking w/ higher unemployment, inflation, FEAR of some terorism)…..the final strike..

This might explain today’s comments by Russia’s president Medvedev,which went something like this -I translate/paraphrase: “He,Medvedev, will NOT accept economic advice from the USA mostly because USA should not be in a position to provide such advice ( under today’s econ circumstances – I read)and the US’s economic/financial role in the world is overstated and does not correspond to its real value”
