We have had the opportunity to be proactive with things like electric or hybrid vehicles or increasing fuel efficiency, but people still choose to buy big trucks or SUVs and ignore the present and future consequences. They prefer the feeling of safety in a larger vehicle or the way the engine sounds, things you do not normally get with an electric or hybrid vehicle. When the price of gas drops drastically, you may hear that SUV…
