Great Mileage won't kill the Oil companies... It will just make people drive more and leave the lights on more...
That is the history of things like that... You go from a car getting 10 MPG's to a care getting 30 MPG's >>> You find yourself driving 3 times further than you did before.

Here is something to think about... You live as much as you can afford & You drive as fast as you can afford.

So why hasn't Exxon developed an electric car to preserve our oil reserves??

Ta-da!!!!

BINGO!!!!!

I like you Crestwood, you're very smart!

Don't you love it when people zero in on the billion dollar question?

Hey ah.... mind if I venture an answer?

It's because..... they don't care about our oil reserves!!!

All they wanna do, is pump it out and convert it to cash as quickly as possible.

These guys are not our friends!
