Separate names with a comma.
A little research will tell you all the answers. Briefly: much lower fuel cost per mile (ie, combined gas/electric cost per mile), reduced C02...
My advice is, sell it with the insulation on and let the recycler strip it. They have machinery for that. Barring that, I've never done wire...
I could have been clearer -- mine's an '07, rated 19/25 22 overall. No idea why it was rated that low. The '08 is rated as you state. It has a...
Couldn't agree more. I bought a Mazda 5 and I like it a lot. Same footprint as the Prius, smaller turning radius, carries 6 people or a...
Seriously? I think a combination of high risk premium and adverse selection would make this unprofitable. Mostly the adverse selection. The...
What a cool question. But you should have asked at $4, imho. So, my interpretation of the rules is: if you could costlessly store gas for your...
The arithmetic seems about right. But I'd like to make two comments. I'm not sure the economics would work out that way -- that the grain not...
I summarized the available statistics in the attached report. And sure enough, as far as you can tell from the small numbers, blind pedestrians...
Well, I think GM is being incredibly dense about a many aspects of this proposed PHEV. Only one of which is the decision to price it as a...
I think the 100 MPG claim is the gas-only consumption based on typical commuter patterns. At least, when CalCars claims 100 mpg on their PHEV...
Of all new cars, the Prius is the least expensive family car to own and operate, according to Consumer Reports.
I signed up for wind power last year, and yeah, the VA Power site makes it essentially impossible to figure out how to do that. Maybe they've...
My only suggestion is that not all meat is equal, and that you can significantly reduce fossil-fuel inputs to your diet just by avoiding grain-fed...
Its worth reading what they author of the original quote actually predicted in his report to the DOE in 2005. Yeah, there are plenty of...
Greenoldman, thanks for the warning. I haven't talked to my insurance agent yet (State Farm). I was thinking that maybe they wouldn't insure the...
Anybody can predict anything, the interesting thing here is the guy's no lightweight. He works for SAIC (major public/private think tank/tech...
Yeah, that surprised me too. I didn't realize GM was that close to releasing a PHEV, and I see a lot of conflicting information about that. A...
Yeah, I'd say, immediately. The premise of the article seemed to be something along these lines: "there's a big energy cost to building a new...
The article was stupid and the Hummer was irrelevant. Let me restate the main premise of the article: "It takes no energy to manufacture a used...
The Dep't of Energy's data says it's more like 2.5% year-over-year reduction, through Feb. 2008 (their most recent posted data, see attached)....
