These car companies are passing off these cars with "OH MY GOD 40+ MPG" as being revolutionary and new. I'm not to young to remember my parents late 70's era VW rabbit that got over 60MPG. That's 40 year old technology. What the hell is going on right now? We should be driving 400 horse, 12 cylinder super cars that get over 100mpg. But instead we brag to each other about our tiny little hybrids that get a miracle 35mpg. Of course i drive an exploder and get 16mpg so i have no room to complain but still....a tiny car should get good gas milage. Rev does the car you drive come in a non-hybrid version? I bet it gets like 32mpg which is freakin stupid because tiny non-hybrids should be getting at least 50 while a hybrid version should be up in the 70's. It just seems so stupid that people go ape shit for a car that gets anything higher than 30mpg when if cars were build right and the technology advances that i'm sure we've had were actually put into cars, i'm sure we'd have 100+ MPG by now. |

You sir do not understand that oil companies pay off car companies to not develop new technology for better fuel use. would you want something that made you lose money when you were making tons of it already. I'm sure a 10 million dollar check would be enough to stop 100mpg cars from being put out by ford or toyota. And I do remember hearing about a book that was about some hybrid car that had 100mpg and was cheap to buy, it was getting rave reviews and now it's not sold anymore |

I know my uncle was a big muckity muck with VW back then before he started doing PR work for Porsche in the mid 80's (cha ching), so it may have even been a European import. |

He's right. wow, 50 whole miles to the gallon. A regular diezel does better then that. and costs like less then half of that to buy. The VW Lupo was rated at about 80 miles to the gallon in 2005 and cost over 10 grand less then the prius in 2005 Same story with the ford fiesta, which was cabable of going 125-135 miles an an hour, and would accelerate 0 to 60 in the amount of time it takes you to admire someone's fucking 'coexist' sticker. |

| _______________________________________ [Jun 11,2008 11:43am - the_reverend ""] um.. gas stations are the losers in this. they make pennies on a gallon, but since you pay with a CC now the amount that the CC takes (which is based on dollars) goes up while the margines goes down. the ones making the moneys are the people in the middle-east pumping it and the big companies that ship it over here and refine it. |
| _______________________________________ [Jun 11,2008 11:49am - the_reverend ""] 1) diesel is $4.88 a gallon (18% more than regular) 2) non-hybrid gets around 33mpg, I get 44mpg and it only cost $2,800 more but I also got a $2,000 tax break. When I did the math, it broke even around $2.85 a gallon. with gas at $4.09, I win. with those 2 points, everyone in america iz idiots and everyone in the world wants to be like us, idiots. I'm bring my car in for regular tune ups and hoping it lasts for over 250K. there is no reason that we shouldn't have cars that do 1million miles other than that we iz idiots. |

On average I drive 80-100 miles per work day, in a Toyota Corolla that gets 33-38 mpg. I fucking win on this one. If the gas wasn't so pricey I would never have gotten this benefit.
