I agree here.

BUT... give us really expensive, efficient, gas guzzling muscle bound hulks designed for tasks they are virtually never used for ,craft an add campaign that appeals to our basic selfishness and give botaloads of money to politicians so they'll never vote for fuel efficiency standards and hey presto, Republic of Cretins that we are we EAT 'EM UP!

Okay, first of all... how are gas cars more expensive than hydrogen cars? I'm not counting the price of gas right here.

You are right that cars are rediculous in their design, but that's the free market. I don't understand why people want them. But hey, if that's what they want, that's what they buy.

Add campaign? A hydrogen car could be advertised just as easily as a gas one, just in a different direction.

All this aside, I think company's should be allowed to make cars that the people want to buy. It sounds like if you had your way, this would often not be the case. No one ever said capatalism had it's drawbacks.

That said, I'm all for hydrogen cars. I do believe people would buy them.
