Green Cars--Giving up the ghost of oil past
Just wanted to do a quick survey to see if people are getting as frustrated as we are in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Gas prices are through the roof and still no end in sight ($3.94 for regular unleaded).
If an affordable alternative was presented and the government gave families vouchers (much like the programs to improve education), I wondered if people would move away from fossil fueled automobiles.
Here is an example of what is currently available for sale--a very sporty, electric car--I also found family cars and trucks readily available. The price is prohibitive for most of us.
Currently, the major manufacturers of todays vehicles are loosing money; new automobiles are staying on dealers lots and fuel economy is only a myth unless citizens can walk, bike or car pool.
Please add your voice by signing this petition to make automobile manufactures, politicians and others realize that we DEMAND alternatives.

All comments to point are welcomed and thank you for your input.
