Thumbs up ->

great article: http://money.cnn.com/2005/08/29/Auto...sels/index.htm

this article explains why a hybrid vehicle is great for around town driving but a regular diesel is better (more economical) for long highway driving, retains its value and lasts longer than a gas vehicle.

so the ultimate combination for the future,,,for a two car family will be to own one diesel vehicle and one hybrid... and that is now my plan.

There was a show on TV about this the other night. Seems if they put the hydrogen in solid form it will be safe with the fuel cells. I think OPEC is buying the idea because they know it is going to take off and no one will need gas.
