Why aren't people buying more hybrid vehicles?

This makes me furious. And this is terrible. And it's our fault. I'm glad I live in a city where I can take public transportation, recycle, walk to work, and minimize my dependence on oil. But even if you don't live in Manhattan, so can YOU! Why are people STILL buying gas-guzzling trucks and monster SUVs, when hybrid options are available? It makes me want to scream!

  1. Those photos and stats are SO sad!! I was listening to NPR last week, and they were saying that cost has a lot to do with it. It looks like a lot of companies are working on hybrid minivans, but for now, we (with a big family that we are hoping will grow more) need to stick with a minivan. There isn't really much of an option when we don't have enough money to just buy a new car every year.

  2. Because they don't make them big enough for a large family, nor do people want to go into debt purchasing them.
