I am not so concerned with the passenger car situation as with the economic impact of high fuel prices on shipping- simply put, since the 1950's brought our current highway system, most of everything in the U.S. moves on semi trailers on long stretches of road- just about everything you buy, eat, read, etc, is now considderably higher to ship from point A to point B- and while, obviously, we should have done something other than building that huge concrete web across the lower 48, it is now the way that it all works, and while my friend that bought a Hybrid a few years ago while complaining about the shortsightedness of the highway system now gets great mileage (forgive the pun) out of it, there seems to be now plan whatever in the works to FIX the problem- and I for one do not look foreward to paying the higher price for the nescessities of life......
