This crisis is permanent, unlike the 70's. We, those of us in the US, use too much oil. If you saw Krammer on the Today show this morning you know we have to change. We use 25 barrels per capita. India and China use 2 and are trying to move up to 4. We use 25% of the worlds oil for 5% of the population.

I'm looking at a scooter, and parking the Crossfire for the summer.

My son-in-law bought a Yamaha R6, which will smoke a Crossfire in any category, yet gets 56 MPG.
