And Three TRILLION dollars of our tax money wasted on wars in the Middle East to protect our access to oil.
Exactly!
And as for the person who thinks $8B was wasted... Ye gods. The feds have a $3.6 trillion budget and probably hundreds of billions of that are wasted from year to year. Over paying suppliers and contractors, graft and corruption, too many federal employees doing too little work, too many handouts, etc. Complaining about $8B is like complaining about a little one-foot puddle in the road, while the next street over is two feet deep in water.
At least that $8B went back into the pockets of consumers who spent it on cars. What about Cash for Clunkers? Talk about a total waste.
Gas prices have been low for all of ten minutes. If OPEC cuts production they go back up overnight.
I have a Camry hybrid. If gas goes down to $1.50 a gallon, I will enjoy driving almost for free.
Great point...a duh moment even for me..
So true, you will still save money regardless of the price of gas with a high mileage/hybrid vehicle.....that much more in your pocket..
Besides, I still don't consider $2.85 "cheap", per filling up your car on a regular basis, especially for those that have to drive often.....
It is still that much more money in your pocket, so still far worthwhile to get something that saves on gas, unless you are independently wealthy and money is no object(and you have no social conscience)..
Yea right that will be the day they love him. He is making the company money. He has turnes Chrysler into a profitable company again.
It was just taken over by Fiat....Chrysler is like a hot potato in the auto world, bounced from here to there...first the US, then Germany, now Italy..
Wait long enough and the Chinese might snap it up(I do not say that in jest)....
Fiat makes Masserati and Ferrari, so no surprise they are against hybrids and electrics, per those two gas guzzlers......still, I understand Chrysler is coming out with its own hybrids and electrics in 2015, so this CEO must really have no clue even what is own company is doing at this point...
Maybe he has consumed too many Italian expressos...
