They are helpful, those Hybrids. I just think more people would convert to alternate energy if a method was more affordable. Such, as a filter or switch that merely needs to be installed near a fuel tank.

I think electric cars will be the ultimate answer, if our politicians, automakers, and oil interests will get out of the way.

Take a look at what has been developed with no help or subsidies from our big automakers or the government. Link:

The Phoenix electric pickup truck - using new, advanced Altairnano batteries (based on research from MIT) - can:
-Travel up to 250 miles per charge
-Carry 5 passengers plus cargo at 95mph.
-Charges batteries in as little as TEN MINUTES.
-Has batteries that last 250,000 miles (never need replacement.)
*
Yes, this is a real car, it's being built right now for fleet customers. General sales will begin soon, if enough orders are taken to keep Phoenix in business.
*
Why aren't we being told that a car like this is possible?
