It doesn't matter. If the U.S. doesn't need to buy more oil than we produce, then we control our own prices and we aren't dependent on countries who support terrorism. That's the bottom line.

Mindmeld, American cars are indeed too large, but in case you haven't noticed, Japanese cars are also getting larger. The #1 reason why GM is losing while Toyota is winning is quality. (#2 reason might be the labor and management infrastructure within GM, but that's another debate.) Good point. I forgot about quality. The one new GM car I have owned was a mess in terms of quality as were the used GM cars. Its a significant issue.......its very unlikely I will ever buy another GM car just on that basis alone. ted
