I think I have given the wrong impression here. Its thanks to the oil companies that we have oil and gasoline to drive our cars.

But if we used less gas it would be good for the environment AND the oil companies (which I have nothing against them as big business) would have to charge less for it. (which I am all in favor of)

Why anyone would buy ANYTHING but the smallest, most energy efficient, most reliable, most practical car for every day use (IE a Yaris or a Fit or similiar) I cannot understand.

(the answer of course is cars are an ego and social manifestation of our (illusionary) place in the picking order which IMHO is SICK!

I CAN understand sports cars if they are small like the Miata and pickup truck if they re used for business and of course every man should own a pickup truck but the smallest possible, of course.
