[QUOTE]Originally posted by Hobbes: [QB] I'm all for alternative energy sources. There was even an episode of The Lone Gunmen about a car that ran on water which addressed both the positive and negative effects of such a thing. As for oil prices, the conspiracy-theorist inside me says that big oil companies are encouraging OPEC to produce less oil so that Shell or Texaco can keep upping their prices and continue making a few extra billion dollars. My major gripe though are SUVs. Explorer, Expedition, Excursion... just how fucking big of a vehicle do people think they need? But it really gets me when someone gets a Ford Excursion then bitches about gas prices. It's a well-known fact that SUVs get shitty milage, like 15-20 miles to a gallon. My car, a '91 Nissan NX2000 gets over 20 miles/gallon, 200 miles a full tank (about 10-12 gallons). For an older car I consider that good, but I may be misinformed... I don't keep up with politics though. It seems that junior is cutting everything, but for what? Where would the extra money go? [/QB][/QUOTE]
