I'm not rich! Are you? It's a total cop-out. A Honda Insight or Toyota Prius are both at the $20K mark which is pretty low. With 5yr financing and a decent downpayment, you could easily be under $250/month. You can't afford it? The Earth is so precious can you afford NOT to have one? As for being rich I'm not the one who stated that they'd be "right there with cash in hand" when the fuel cell vehicles came out because they are "clean". EV/Hybrids are available NOW and are just as clean. Put your money where your mouth is. Typical liberal...everyone else should take mass transit (so that the congestion is less for me), everyone else should buy fuel efficient vehicles (except for me because I *need* my SUV), zoning laws should be changed to allow higher density (except in my neighborhood because it would alter the character). Those eeeeeevil companies like Haliburton!!! Why, they actually purchase oil on the open market and then sell it!!! I'm forced to buy it!
