Gas

[Jim_Cantore]

With the sure-to-be rising gas costs, in the war for oil, are you all considering selling your H2's and getting a more economical and environmentally sound vehicle?

Seriously man, I only get to read this stuff early morning or late night. It's been really busy for me lately.

I have no hand in all this. Gawd I wish I did. It's so freakin hilarious.!

[tailgunner]

is "stelth gray" different than "stealth gray"? is it more stealthy, or less? or is the "a" so stealthy it can't be seen by the naked eye?

Why don't you put your money (if you have any) where your mouth is and use a horse to get from point a to point b. That's the most environtmentally friendly mode of transportation currently available. If it's not feasable for you to use a horse in the city, then move to the country. Just some friendly advice.

So you are saying you would rather keep your material ego and forego your monetary gain and continue to deplete resources.

Typical. You sheep will never change.

Uhhh?? Yeah! Dumbass

Wow, you are way off:

By driving an H2, you are helping the planet:

""A climate expert says global warming could be balanced out by the cooling effect of car exhausts. He says aerosols pumped out by vehicles can lead to the formation of rain droplets in clouds which, in turn, has a cooling effect. Computer climate models which predict global warming may not have taken this effect into account.

Ran Ramanathan, of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in California, says aerosol output has increased by about a third since 1980. The Times reports he has calculated that the cloud-seeding effect of aerosols could lower temperatures locally by up to 2.5C.

Aerosols are also produced by industrial processes and naturally by volcanoes but do have some negative health and environmental effects. Ramanathan said: "There is a possibility that it might add more impact or virtually balance all the impact of greenhouse warming." ""

And saving lives:

""46,000 people have died because of a 1970's push for greater fuel efficiency that's led to smaller, less-safe cars. That's the bottom line.

Think about that: this so-called do-gooder effort to improve safety on the highways, killed 46,000 of our brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, cousins and neighbors.

Think of all these stories you hear of road fatalities. Remember the names of those people, and realize that there are some sports stadiums that don't hold as many people as these foolish laws have killed! That number is even more earth-shattering when you consider that 41,821 died in all car crashes in the year 2000! We hear a lot about drunk drivers, but they killed 16,653 in 2000 - still not as much as these CAFE laws."""

same right that gives you the ability to express your opinion on this matter give me the right to drive a hummer. Just remember you are no better than me just because we express ourselves differently. i dont call you names b/c you believe in something do i? jumping to conclusions simply b/c of the way i express myself is quite childish.

[DennisAJC]

Ken you cocksucker!

Almost got a speeding ticket because of you!

[MONSTERMATT]

alright this dude has gotta go!!!!

[MONSTERMATT]

HUG A TREE AND HOPEFULLY THERE IS A HOLE IN IT SO U CAN FUCCC IT TOO hows that for arrogance?

[H2 007]

I love driving my H2. Do I need another reason other than that? It's what I choose to do with MY life.

Besides that, it gets 2-3 MPG better than my 2005 F250.

[HGW]

Yes, I will continue to deplete resources with both my H2's and my Dodge Ram. I am not sure what the hell you are talking about.

I drive a Honda too--so what?

Technology will solve the oil crises over time just like oil did for coal, and coal did for wood.

Must I or anyone on here solve this issue? Do we count our bicycle miles and walking miles?

I work in an affluent liberal area where everyone worries about oil and gas. They commute 45-60 miles one way each day in their "Honda" to make the bucks they have to get live away from, and then sh-it on the working man. Their tires are underinflated, their never get tune ups, and they drive these old ****wagons without the newest polution controls to save their BMWs and Mercedes for the weekend with their friends. What should we do we these people????

Maybe someone who cares should educate the educated liberal tree hugger?

You can people here sheep. Well--in a blind kingdom and one eyed man is King. You folks all think you are Kings...you buy leather, use paint, build houses, buy metal products, flush your toilet, and use a lot of paper so that you can write **** to feel good about yourself.

Spend some time at a meat packing plant and talk to a hard working, uneducated man for a day. He will teach you more than any book. Oh yea....if he was "educated properly" he would be like you right????????

I hope you didn't try to light it!

[Poseur]

I don't see environmental soundness in any vehicle. I also believe that the more batteries you have in your car the less environmentally sound it is.
Why don't we all get bicycles, oh wait, they usually have welded frames and welding releases toxic fumes. So does making tires. Plastics and resins? You betcha.
If you are really so hell bent on environmental soundness why don't you start a crusade against the vinyl industry. Or just think about all the unregulated ozone depleting chemicals that are being released right now all over the world producing products sold here because our EPA has caused many companies to move the production of products using said chemicals to somewhere that won't be regulated as closely or at all.
We must now take a look at any full size pickup, van, or SUV as their economy is right there with an H2.
If you want to hate the H2, hate it but don't try to disguise it as some self righteous environmentally sound you should be ashamed of youself crap.
You obviously don't have the depth of comprehension to look deeper to the root of the problem and are just a bandwagon jumper. And you're way late to that party as well.
Here's one for you. Show some self discipline and drive less.

I call BS, Dennis. It has to be you two jokers.

... ain't my bag, baby.

[HGW]

Exactly?--WTF did you read---many of your kind drive to work to make big bucks and get away from the cities---where is their conservation?

You think this universe is finite??? This world will come up with the answers through inovation that comes from free thinking and the lure of the dollar, not from worry and self-sacrifice.

The whole human race is set up to work self interest, not the opposite.

I am done with you and this post. I am wasting precious electricity (created though coal burning in many states) answering your babble.
