Hybrid SUVs: Good or Bad?

There are many sides to the hybrid car movement, some have environmental concerns, some want to end foreign oil dependency, and some just love the newest technology.

Those on the environmental side typically hate SUVs, regardless of their hybrid status. SUVs are inefficient by design, enivironmentalists clamor, and dangerous to compact cars - cars that if driven by every American would significantly improve the environment and reduce foreign-oil dependency.

For the most part, they are correct.

Still, many Americans have a legitimate need for a SUV; therefore, hybrid SUVs, such as the Ford Escape hybrid, Toyota Highlander hybrid, and the Lexus RX400h are very important additions to the American market. These vehicles showcase hybrid technology to a wide spectrum of market segments, converting many naysayers, while providing real tools for Americans to stand for their beliefs when making one of their most important purchases.

Never has the average citizen had so much power to affect change.

Time to take a stand in your life? Demand nothing less than hybrid vehicle performance - less gas, less pollution, greater performance.
