feedback Gas guzzling SUV's help the Enviornment... New

Lets face it the use of gas guzzling vehicles has over taxed rhe worlds ability to prduce gas. Which has sped up the production of hybrid cars(Gm moved up it's full size hybrid pickup 2 years and set s date 2010 for hydrogen cars). And  even high powered oil men in texas talking about getting into hydrogen. maybe it's not true completely but look at the big picture. jeep and MB will ofer diesel vehicles this fall(Liberty and e series) that get almost twicw the mpg that the gas ones get. In thge end I think the ole Hummer turned the tide so please if your inclined do the enviornment a favor and get a big yellow one. peace out sj
