Before we talk about cars I would just like to know what everyone thinks about the new light bulbs we are all being forced to use. I realize they use less electricity and that has to be a long term priority for the world but are they really a substitute for the old incandescent bulb? Their fine if you don't mind paying 4 times the price per bulb and getting headaches when you try to read a book. Not to mention they're full of mercury so don't break one and be sure to take it to the proper recycling center at the end of its life (I know everyone does that). This brings me to hybrid cars. I referenced the light bulbs to make the point that the whole story on anything isn't usually told especially when someone is trying to sell you something. Many people with good intentions are buying these vehicles believing they are helping to pave the way to a greener planet and there's nothing wrong with that. If your considering paying extra for on of these vehicles check out the article below first.
