OPEC will raise prices EVEN WITH DECLINING USE to manage its profit margin. It will help you at the pump....but hell, a Ford F350 Dually Diesel (8500 Lbs) running b99 diesel and a 100K oil bypass would technically surpass the performance of the prius or honda cars. Batteries folks...pure and simple. Eliminate oil....Solar/Wind/Geothermal during the day...Batt at night. I get a kick out of those that suggest a high mileage car “good for the environment”.

Perhaps it will speed our transition from fossil fuels as a primary energy source. In the meantime I will continue to improve my driving habits and attempt to make my car more aerodynamic. The average driver could increase their gas mileage by a large percentage, which would definately offset the soaring costs at the pump.
