Hybrid Cars

I predict one day all cars would be hybrid and gas cars will be a thing in the past. The world's fuel supply is depleting fast; fuel-efficient car is the way of the future. Gas car will be gone like dot matrix printers.
However, I am not so sure if everyone will park in their garage with their cars plug into wall outlet like you would with your electric toothbrush. I can't forsee that happening yet.

The Prius is cool looking, but it is a few thousands more than the size-comparable Corolla. How many tanks to fuel to make up that? You may have sold your car already before you have some savings. Even for environment's sake many people won't shell out that money to buy a environmental friendly car.

Another car I looked at is the Honda Insight. Good looking and good price! But YIKES what the heck is up with the rear seat? If you are above 5'7" you won't be so comfortable, probably as little room as the Beetle. Come on (E.)Honda, I expect you can do better than that!

Another one is the Chevy Volt. This is the opportunity for Americans to buy American if this is done right. Ok, it isn't even launched yet. I saw some concept pics, yikes it is ugly, looking almost like a 60s muscle car. Whoa, $7500 tax credit? STILL will cost you $32,500. and I thought the Prius was just a tad more expensive than what I want to pay. This is bound to fail, Chevy.

Here is what people want: a great eco-friendly car, reasonably sized, cool-looking design and reasonably priced. The Prius is almost there. The price must come down a bit more in order for a economy booming car-change revolution to take place. Unfortunately, I haven't seen an American car making this happening.

If ink jet printers and laser printers are a few hundred dollars more than the noisy dot matrix printers, we would still be hearing the long-time-no-hear sound of the dot matrix, or the even more noisy daisy wheel.
