Actually it's because keeping it the way it is, is big business in and of itself.

You can't really blame government when lobbyists are lining the legislators pockets.

It's not about taxes... that's silly.

If they came out with a car that got double the gas mileage, they could just double the gas tax, and we would all still pay less at the pump....

The *REASON* that they aren't selling this in the US, is because the Rockafeller dynasty is an OIL dynasty...

Figure it out, sheeple...

I guess I am a bit biased in this as well as I like German cars and their handling. It is simply fantastic as there is no need to slow around corners, and marvelous interiors and lighting. I have owned 2 BMWs and one Mercedes and will upgrade to another BMW hopefully within the next year if finances permit..

Look into an audi. They are in a league of their own. And they dont look like a box on wheels anymore.

I wanted to add this post To this thread here...

Who Killed The Electric Car

This post is dated in 07 so you may have to research the video for it.. But it is an interesting look on how they brought out a good car that was good on gas and suddenly recalled the car for no reason...
