Global warming...Global cooling???????? make up ur mind. Most of you are too young to remember all of this. Do your damn homework. Al Gore is a fraud.

I like choices and my choice is to drive a BIG VEHICLE, What happens when I hit you in your hybrid egg car, I win...I do not mind paying more to fill it up... Profit is not a dirty word like all you liberals think...Its Capitalism

I'm not saying you can't make the choice you're making, and you have the right to pay more to fill it up. It's the attitude that I have an issue with, which doesn't matter to you, and rightfully so. I don't have a hybrid egg car, we have two mid-sized cars that both do fairly well mileage-wise, and mine is a 6 cylinder that has a little kick to it - my choice, I like that.

Profit isn't a dirty word at face value, but it is irritating to me that we are bailing out these American car companies because they used their profits in other ways other than R&D and meeting the demand of future generations, unlike companies like Honda and Toyota. These companies have been run by fossils who staunchly have refused to face reality at best, and have conducted underhanded business practices at worst. They could have competed much more intelligently than they have over the past couple of decades, and they are suffering for that business model now.

I personally think your attitude sucks, but that's my opinion. You can have a sucky attitude if you like, that's your deal, but don't expect everyone to understand it, or care for it. And, despite what you try to make happen, it doesn't make others stupid or wrong because they don't agree with you.

I am not attacking you, first of all, the hybrid egg car is referencing what Obama wants us all to drive by 2016, I have a bad attitude because our country is being taken over by a radical Muslim telling me what I have to do, like not keeping my thermostat at 72, I keep mine at 70, what light bulbs I must use, all this global warming hoax... this guy is a maniac and has to be stopped, now he is telling me I can't drive a SUV I WANT and NEED, I don't like rules, we need smaller government and they need to stay out of my life...

Hedge: Why do you insist on supporting the terrorists by driving up oil consumption? Driving a gas guzzler is very unpatriotic.

How about a nice sedan? My 4-door Civic Hybrid gets 45 MPG highway and fits four people just fine, but it is probably on the small side. It cost a whopping $22k. I'd imagine a few more thousand could buy you some more leg room if need be.

My wife and I liked this car so much, we bought another one tonight. I'm selling my truck to take advantage of the gas mileage....and to help fight terrorism.

Your random scary posts on the verge of bellicose comedy relief are beginning to resemble those of the government of North Korea. Only a whackjob could dream of this crap and it?s not really worth responding to.

Its really fun though. I'm hoping one of these days one of my posts will send him over the edge. Then he can preach his gospel in one of our many prisons. Then it would only be a matter of time before he gets his.

Yeah Tramp but think how much we'd miss him. The entertainment value he brings to this forum is priceless. Just push him to the edge once in a while, then pull back. ;)

my wife has a Honda Accord, but we never take it for trips, just our gas guzzling SUV, nothing is more important to me than safety and comfort, absolutely nothing, maybe next week after GM takes bankruptcy I will buy another SUV, still waiting for prices to drop

I can understand driving one because you feel like it keeps you safe. You can't put a price on safety, but the price you pay for gas is going to be sickening over the course of the year compared to someone like me. Life's about choices, knock yourself out.

back at ya...maybe you can go read some more books on the money you saved on gas, I will just use it to fill up my global warming polluting evil Black SUV with tires underinflated...Obama is just stupid to think he is going to get rid of SUV's, My thinking is buy one now and drive it for 10 years. Bigger the better, I may go look at the H2's, those look sharp too
