Answer 1

Well, it's all been said before, but the most cost effective car out there today is still the 1997 Geo Metro or SE, both get 49 mpg highway and 42 in the city and can be had for between $1500.00 and $5000.00.

Answer 2

All cars should run on the driver's inflated sense of self-satisfaction.

We all plug in ,big time brown out ,or build nuclear power plants?

Answer 4

I am constantly amazed at how many people are sucked in by the main stream media and marketing lies.

Electric cars, Air driven cars, Hydrogen cars, Solar Cars, Hybrid cars, etc. all work, but that does not mean they are cost effective, practical for most people, are environmentally friendly when everything is taken into account.

You cannot overcome the laws of Physics. It takes a certain amount of energy to move something from one place to another at a particular speed. This does not change, no matter how you produce the energy. At this time, the most cost effective way to produce energy is Oil and gas.

Hydrogen - Costly and Safety problems.

Electric - Still pollutes at source, Batteries, Short range.

Air - Short range, still must use energy to compress air.

Solar - Would take a football field of panels per car.

About the best you can do is get a very small car like a Toyota Corolla (40 MPG), Walk more, Bike more, Carpool, Get a very small house, recycle, and try to buy local products as much as possible.

Answer 5

They don't need to.

This car runs on compressed air and is scheduled to be on sale in 2008.
