I think the reports of the death of gas has been exagerated.
As long as auto makes can resist the cost of retooling, petrol engines will
be made in mass quantities.
I predict many of you will be joining me in paying any amount in the future
to drive out cars. Seeing as I can't imagine driving my car more than 1-2K
miles in a year.
