Either way, the chief complaint/drawback to larger vehicles seems to be how much fuel they use. If we get a less expensive and reliable alternate power source for vehicles, expect *MORE* suv's, not less.


surely cheap new energy is good. But we need also an infrustructure and volume to make a new energy source usable by the mass consumer. This infrastructure will cost a lot. To get it by 2010, the country needs to start invest in it right now, and not just miserable 2 billions per year in the current budget.
