why is the fuel miliage picture a joke? Ferarri and Lambo have about that in gas miliage to this day, most anything above V10 and anything with a W config gets about that in gas miliage on a good day with a tail wind under normal driving conditions.
Anyone ever heard any of the officials who said there is no shortage of oil and that no time within the next 100 years at the current rate of increase could the world even get close to consuming all the fossil fuel sources on the planet?
Does anyone have any information on the US oil reserves and if we are tapping them at all? ;) When I asked my father about it he said that it is far cheaper to use oil from other countries (makes sense if you think of it as outsourcing) and he has never seen nor heard anything about using our reserves more than the trickle we do now nor any major concerns from any of the oil companies on ever running out. He works for Chevron/Texaco and this conversation happened in front of other family members who work at Exxon/Mobile and Shell, none of them said anything contradictory.
They have even found untapped sources in "Deep Water" which was a major project pioneered by Exxon in the late 90's, they developed some super platforms that were to be used in water that no other company could even attempt to drill in because of depth. There is no shortage of domestic oil, the US just decides to use up the resources of the other countries so that we have the reserves, they could relieve us at anytime and probably only will when the market can no longer bare increase.
BTW oil companies profit way more off of non automobile fluid production, bigger money in heating oil/natural gas and the sale of petroleum products to chemical companies that produce things like plastics.
