Interesting, so do not feel so bad about that GM vehicle, they are at least making an attempt in a big way to be green!!!

Henry Ford was a visionary and he was committed to making affordable cars for the masses, and that's a mindset that stays with us to this day. We're less interested in a one-off solution that may be an alternative to traditional gas-powered vehicles if it's too expensive or has unproven technology with questionable effects on the environment. Just as we're committed to sustainable activities throughout our company, we want to see innovations in fuel economy that extend across an entire fleet of vehicles. We'll be doing more to tell our story - in the humble Ford way - but with help this time around. I hope you and your readers will stay tuned, because we've got some truly amazing things to share.

Sometimes as consumers we concentrate on the end product when we should be looking at the whole product and that is what you brought to my attention. Not just emissions but is the whole company making attempts to be green.

We recently purchased a new car and while I would have loved to have a hybrid we just couldn't afford it. Interestingly, my new car is a Ford and I was wondering how much damage I was doing with my car (which I try not to drive often but I don't live close to stores or anywhere else I need to go so I have to). After reading your post about hybrids I wasn't feeling so bad and now I really don't feel bad. As a matter of fact, I'm even more proud of my car than before. Because I really love my car. Excellent article!
