Oil companies want the keystone pipeline......how did that go for them?  Remember democrats are in charge now.  It probably has something to do with VW not building them in a union shop or it may help against "global warming" and then what would Al Gore do?  Maybe, just maybe it has something to do with demand. This 2 seat machine is going to come in at around 150k so yeah I know exactly zero people who could afford it and all but the hardest hard core tree huggers would want it at that price.

 :bonk: :bonk: :bonk: :scratch: :scratch: :scratch: man you guys really like to avoid the hole point here. the oil companies see this as a hit to there record profits, like the article said they have had record profits the last 10 years. or didn't you read that part.????? :surrender: :surrender: :doah:

there are carborators and or fuel injection systems out there that get 50=60 or better miles to the gallon but guess who owns them patents.....yep oil companies. training-087 training-087 training-087 :banghead: :banghead:

and for the record our trade has a vested interest in the oil business. our field guys go in and work in these refineries.

More people are driving every day.  More customers more profit.  Big government makes more money off a gallon of gas then big oil.
