Still, where are those efficient cars stateside? Where is that Prius-killer? 10 year old hybrid technology and no one here in the US thinks ahead? And a 30-MPG Aveo ain't gonna cut it. Please don't tell me the domestic car makers will want more of my tax money to piss away. I'm also of the opinion...how long can companies bleed the "green" while touting they ARE 'green'?
