I’m sure there are hidden methods, but they’re not being told. It’s either being hidden by the government or by a local resident

is the government limiting us, or have we got so lazy that creativity and invention has replaced by complacency? Someone, in some backyard, somewhere in this huge world, has to have an alternative fuel source!

True, we could drive anything we want, but it’s the government that is limiting us now.

But we SHOULD NOT have to make compromises in my opinion. If we want a big large SUV car then we should be able to get one. Everyday it upsets me that I do not have the skills to create a real alternative energy source like using clean burning (somehow) garbage (which would be the best), or common grass or some other abundant resource that could be used.

I really want a compact car too, but it’s just the safety issue here in Los Angeles that causes a problem God forbid, but if you were to get into an accident with my SUV, the outcome is the thing that matters the most. I don’t know…I just want to save gas, but a hybrid SUV costs way too much.

Very interesting remark. I think you’re absolutely right that people don’t know how good it has been and took advantage of these things when they were “cheap”. We’ll really have to see what will be developed in the future.

I am right there with you man! Since I drive 20 miles to work each day and my wife drives the same distance twice a week, we had to make a change. Instead of having to fill up our Explorer twice a week (at $60 a pop) we decided to purchase a 2006 Hyundai Accent as the family commuter car.

It’s nothing fancy and quite honestly it doesn’t need to be. It costs me $35/week to fillup and gets anywhere from 300-350 miles on a tank of gas! I’ll never understand why people would pay 50,000 for a Hummer or other luxury vehicles. They think cars are an investment, when in reality they’re money pits. I’ll take my $8,000 Hyundai over an overpriced gas hog anyday.
