The future of Temecula & Murieta ?

There is another potential solution, American ingenuity.

I’ve posted a link to this company a few times:

In a nutshell, they are on tract to create a 100mpg 2-person three wheeler, for around 20k.

Something like this could literally save the exurbs.

Have a hybrid or bio-diesel SUV to run errands and the VentureOne for the daily commute.

So I guess we will never have electric car’s and , trams going down the center of every freeway.

We will never live like the Australian’s do and just use cars to go back and forth to the store and on week end’s.

Sorry I don’t buy it,

I think America will transform itself with amazing speed in the next ten years,

Right now there are so many large scale solar energy projects planned the Government is overwhelmed and has stop taking applications (which I think is a big mistake).

See article below:

The US Bureau of Land Management, overwhelmed by applications for large-scale solar energy plants, has declared a two-year freeze on applications for new projects until it completes an extensive environmental impact study. The study will produce ‘a single set of environmental criteria to weigh future solar proposals, which will ultimately speed the application process.’ The freeze means that current applications will continue to be processed — plants producing enough electricity for 20 million average American homes — but no new applications will be accepted until the study is complete. Solar power companies are worried that this will harm the industry just as it is poised for explosive growth. Some note that gas and oil projects are booming in the southwestern states most favorable to solar development. Another threat looming over the solar industry is that federal tax credits must be renewed in Congress, else they will expire this year.”

kewp, I hope they get those into production soon, even with $4 or $5 gas they would sell like hotcakes and they look cool. Sometimes I think about $10 gas and how it would change much more than real estate, it will change travel, destroy industries (rv’s, boats, remote recreation like skiing or camping) and make all shipped goods cost more. But before the doom and gloom sets it, I have to admit I have faith in the inventors, in this country and abroad. I think a few years ago if the 3 wheeler came out, people would be afraid of being out on the road with all the suv’s and getting in an accident but now they would dominate the road if they hit the market. I see tiny cars all day, yaris, fit, smart, the teeny cars are taking over and I would buy one of those three wheelers because they look fun. $5 gas or even $10 gas may be the kick in the butt we needed, if everyone got 100 mpg I’m not sure if we would even need to import oil, so in the end it may turn out to be a good thing.

I also think that if the Venture one is successful there will be copycats and they will leapfrog into even higher mpg, 20 years from now you may be looking at apple’s new icar. When i see the gadgets that apple comes out with it blows me away and I always think they need to get into the car business. And how nice will the air smell and look when the internal combustion engine is a thing of the past.
