cars occupy almost mythical status in the mind of the consumer.

And I see absolutely nothing wrong with that. It's part of the
American culture.

This is the alternative:

What's wrong with the alternative?

Because they are not a solution. They are a symbolic statement, which
is fine if that's what floats your boat.

So, in between an Escalade and a hybird, there are no in-between
solutions?


Yes, common sense. If hybrids and being politically correct floats your
boat, do so without preaching.

You are very defensive about all this. It's not absolutely NOTHING to do
with being politically correct. Nada. Zip.


If an Escalade floats your boat, do so, responsibly. The same applies for
everything in between.

Correct. It applies to everything in between. But, if your daily routine
(work, shopping) can't be altered, and sometimes it can't, there is a
floor - a minimum below which you cannot go, in terms of using a vehicle.


I have a question for you. Do you believe that to an extent, the prices of
commodities are determined by demand?
