Re: New VW gets 282 miles per (U.S.) gallon...

Lack of infrastucture for these "alternatives" is certainly a factor. No one is going to buy something that can't be "fuelled" at the next corner...or county...or country. And realizing the boondoggle that ethanol is, is not helping matters.
What IS the "fuel of the future"??? No one seems to be sure...yet...
As for "plug-ins", seems to me electricity has to be generated somehow...and in the U.S., most of that is coal- or oil-fired... And it's certainly NOT free...in any regard...
Regardless, a sinking $ and record Oil profits are not helping the Economy, or John Q. Public...
