28. I do want alternatives. i was glad to see an all electric is out from one company.
And more hybrids. I do agree that the rise in gas prices has pushed people to look for more fuel efficient vehicles and to WANT cars that use something else. I try to explain to my fundie brother that oil is a national security issue. he seems to agree when put in those terms. though i am sure he thinks drilling here would fix that. of course it wouldn't. he listens to rush limbaugh and watches faux news.... so he doesn't listen to much of anything. I am hoping that like the prius we will see people snapping up those electric cars and then more car makers will jump on board. i guess if gas prices went up this summer that might help that along. I am lucky because i don't HAVE to go anywhere besides dropping kids off or picking up from school. and groceries. so i can stretch out my gas to last me if i have to. and my husband drives a company vehicle with a company gas card for his job. so we don't have him having to fill up his car three times a week to get to a job.
