Good post. I think you're right. But the question still remains, how long does it take for consumers to have their money free up again? It sounds like it'll take a year and a half for consumers to fully adjust their habits (as well as for the impact of the energy industry's response to be felt.) On a related note, I learned today that the cost of a hybrid car can be ENTIRELY paid from the savings in gasoline between a hybrid and a regular car, if you have an average length commute. I know someone that is doing this - the numbers are really amazing - his gas cost savings are exactly equating to the cost of his car, i.e. the monthly gas savings exactly equal the monthly loan. Wow. Consumers will respond to that, for sure. The hybrids should do better marketing on this - I had no clue the cost savings were that large until I saw real life numbers from someone that bought a hybrid. Let your gas savings buy your hybrid car. Regards, Amy J
