They may get it right, but MSNBC has predicted 12 of the last 2 gasoline price hikes, 0 or the last 15 gas price reductions, and 35 of the last 2 recessions. They are simply gloom and doomers.

hybrids will always suck…if you can find a way to turbo a hybrid than maybe it won’t be as bad…but still they will always suck

Funny you say that Roger, MSNBC 3 weeks ago predicted that within the next 3 years the current price of gas will nearly double.

Gasoline prices would have to increase to five dollars a gallon or above – and stay there – for hybrid vehicles to gain mass market acceptance.

I agree that many people are a little put off by the cost of replacement parts etc for newer hybrid vehicles but at some point we won’t have any choice but to accept greener technologies.

The rise in gas prices will at some point make these new vehicles more than viable and with more people embracing them the costs will come down. With global warming and oil reserves declining everyone including the oil companies will have no choice but to accept that the days of cheap fuel pumping greenhouse gases into our environment are coming to an end.

It is encouraging to see vehicle manufacturers finally begin to produce commercially viable hybrid vehicles that are a step in the right direction.
