I agree with LoveEarthAlways: Ford, Chrysler and Government Motors had better get going on hybrids and plug-in hybrids. As for the vehicles on display in Detroit, several are out of the question for our family because they are too small and/or light. I won't risk the lives of my wife and child by sticking them in a flimsy vehicle that will be decimated in an accident with even a decent-sized car (let alone trucks and SUVs). Our 2009 Prius is about as small and light as we're willing to go. We'll focus on green vehicles that aren't death traps in an accident. Top two on our list are the forthcoming plug-in hybrid versions of the Ford Escape SUV and the Prius. We're hoping that both those vehicles will be assembled in the USA, too. The plug-in hybrid Escape will probably be made in Kansas City, Missouri, like the "regular" hybrid Escape. The plug-in hybrid Prius may be assembled at Toyota's recently-built plant in Mississippi. Very encouraging developments. I agree with LoveEarthAlways: Ford, Chrysler and Government Motors had better get going on hybrids and plug-in hybrids.
