I think the $5 mark will be hit before that...
I like some of those pint sized cars they are coming out with. They're kinda cool. I hope they are able to build safety into them.
Good idea! All BYU, Inc. students should be required to only operate a MINI Cooper.

The new ones make the Mini Cooper look like a stretch limo.A guy at work has one of those cars I think you are talking about. I figure if it breaks down on him, we can put it into the bed of my pickup and drive him home!

Ethanol is not the perfect source of energy. It is caustic to the pipeline delivery systems, so it must be trucked which is counterproductive, and it is forcing up the cost of food. Study history, more riots and revolutions have been caused by the lack of, or the high price of food than even religion. If you think high gas prices are volatile wait til all the grains triple in price.
