Re: Chrysler Locks-In Gas Prices

It's just like an off-purchase rebate -- half the time, people don't send them in. That's what will happen w/this. All the people who are so dense as to worry about spending an extra couple thousand a year on gas, but will go buy a new car and lose WAY more than that in depreciation will lose their card or forget about it or whatever.

One of the smartest promos I've ever seen -- Chryco will do well w/this. They'll keep their cash and pay it out only if necessary. Just like that "Lifetime" warranty...

I am so tired of the moaning about the gas prices I could scream. I hope it goes to $10/gallon so that the entire economy shuts down and there is rioting in the streets -- and MAYBE there will be enough of an uproar to shut these treehuggers up once and for all. So then MAYBE we can drill our nearby oil instead of the Chinese and build some refineries.

I'm not saying we shouldn't conserve, use alternatives where feasible, develop new technologies -- but we're stuck w/oil for the foreseeable future and we are collectively STUPID if we keep hindering ourselves. Because China and India aren't going to hinder themselves and Russia and the Middle East are going to gouge everyone for as long as they can.
