A cop out if there ever was one...."I can't afford one" bwahhh! Can you
afford not to drive one? You say you'll be there cash in hand when the fuel
cells arrive. Why not go out and purchase a hybrid today instead of a fuel
cell in 20 years? You don't seem to have a problem continuing to burn
hydrocarbons.  As for me,

I could easily afford one but don't like 'em. My Saab, Pontiac, and Honda
are quite efficient and very clean burning. The Honda is over 12 years old
and registers very little at DEQ. Easy pass. I'll continue to use gasoline
powered cars until something better comes along.
