It probably cost more right now to buy a new than to keep driving the one you have till we come out with electric, natural gas hybrid

Answer 4

1) You will know that you are doing your part, no matter how small, a real responsible action.

2) You will set a good example to others.

3) Join the (somewhat slow) movement toward alternative fuels.

4) Reduce demand and exploitation of oil in other countries.

5) The more gas you buy the more your funding war crime and stretching the pockets of a hand full of fat cats.

Answer 5

Buying it will only save you money on gas nothing else. Most are cheaply made, designed, and don't go very fast. You may get a tax break whenever you get a Hybrid, but I am not sure about that.

By the way, when it comes to pollution, how does going green here in the U.S. going to save the earth, when there are countries like China, India, and the Middle East, who have no such "environmental" laws and pollute as much as possible.

I am a conservative, and it sounds like the government is trying to get more money from us.

Answer 6

Because you save a ton of gas and pollutes a lot less.

Answer 7

let's say you drive 20,000 miles a year.

and you have your choice of a car that gets 20 mpg or one that gets 40 mpg.

at $4 a gallon, that would be $4000 or $2000 a year.

so you'd save $2000 this year.

over 10 years that's $20,000

BUT, oil has gone up 20% in 4 1/2 months.

and it's not even summer.

you'll see gasoline at $8 a gallon -- maybe $12 a gallon while you still own that car.

at $12 a gallon, in 10 years, that would be $60,000  --  twice the price of the car.  keep in mind, that's not how much you pay, it's how much you save.  ie,  money in your pocket.

do you still need a website?
