Of course the ultimate in fuel efficiency would be a Plug-in hybrids (you can't really buy 'em right now, you pretty much have to make 'em yourself or have someone retrofit a Prius or something for you). The gas engine doesn't kick in until after you've gone 40 miles or more, when the battery runs out. Since my last fill-up, I averaged just 28 miles a day. If I had a plug-in hybrid, I might not have used any gas at all these past two weeks!
Don't forget, folks, as we rejoice at "cheap" $2.11 a gallon gasoline. Hybrids are much more than about saving $ on gas. It's about reducing emmissions, and eliminating our dependence on foreign oil. Buy a hybrid today!

You are such a liberal! ;-)
But this is something we kind of agree on. I saw a video on AOL the other day on the air car, it will be ready for mass production in only a year. All you have to do is fill the "tank" up with compressed air. It only goes 55 MPH right now, but for a station or around town car, it is great. Use this link to find the link for the video http://search.aol.com/aolcom/video?invocationType=aolcomvideo&query=the%20air%20car and here is the website for the research site http://www.theaircar.com/
