I guy at work told me about these little trucks that can get up to 60 mpg (that is the 3 cyl). most look like they will get 38 mpg(4 cyl engine). Thought I'd share, so here is the link:

Unfortunately only for off road use. :-[ Cool that they will be assembling these in Oklahoma though. Rare these days to hear of jobs coming into the U.S..

I work at the Local Veterans Hospital and a bunch of guys in the trades dept. got to test run them. I sat in one thats about it. I dont know they look good but for 11k I think Ill pass on that.

As I understand it, it depends on which state you live in. I am told states like Montana can drive these trucks on the road. That is how I heard about these trucks. A guy in Montana bought one from a dealer there. Since they meet CA emission and hwy standards, we may be able to get them in other states.

Finally got the correct web site for the trucks I was talking about. I know you can drive these trucks on the road in MT, but not in WA.

Do you think voting will do any good this time? They haven't fixed the voting system, last I heard, because it works to the Dems favor.

I drove a few of those in the military while I was overseas. They use them a lot over there. Fun little trucksters. They even had 4-door crew cabs.
