Death of the SUV

When it comes to the US auto industry I don't get the manufacturers...we have all known for years that oil would be a diminishing resource...today we have a terrible bio-fuel program and auto makers are still making gas only engines and the govt has not put into play the design of an infrastructure for re-new able energy. We are so far behind the curve and it's not just the auto industry. Brazil is currently selling more cane based ethanol than gasoline - oh yeah - that's because GM supplies most of the E85 vehicles...and they use sugar [non protein] for ethanol and they have a complete system to get
ethanol to the consumers. [seen any E85 stations in your area - not mine] Yes - SUVs as they are configured today will become a relic...
but we have problems bigger than an SUV to now fix...
