General Motors.
Ford. Well, would you? These cars were designed in part with Federal money. They get nearly 80 MPG. And the designs are almost ten years old. |

Not to hijack, but since the price of fuel is coming down why not this car

For that money I can get a BMW M3 instead of a dressed up Mustang, which sells for less than 20,000 dollars. Now that is slumming. |

Why did you show pictures of cars from over 8 years ago? Because it tickled my nuts... And because it shows that the technology to do this isn't immature at all, but rather the car companies haven't offered cars with these features. Me? I'd rock one. I drive a car now because it is cheap. I would drive one of these because it is even cheaper. |

Let the fucking market decide. Once a company accepts .gov money, the government gets to tell them what to do. This will fuck over the domestics. The government spent 1,250,000,000 over a decade on these cars. The companies spent about ten times that. So they spent 10 billion on development but don't have any build able cars to show for it?

Texaspyro, Ford wanted to bring one of their cars over, but it is built in a factory in England, and after exchanging money it would have cost something like 25,000 dollars for a small diesel coupe.
They can't just bring the cars over. They have to be made here. As for the EPA, Europe is headed down that road sooner rather than later. And I'll tell you, Europe is a dirty place. |
