The bottom line is that some vehicles are way worse for the environment than others -- and we all share the environment. I don't feel I should have to deal with the ecological havoc Hummers cause.

I really enjoy my drive everyday to work not because of the attention or anything ... just the way my car makes me feel.... we will never ride a Prius and you will never ride a Hummer.... and everyone has his right in this democracy....

You might be interested in <a href="http://www.treehugger.com/files/2006/07/hybrids_current.php" rel="nofollow">an analysis of the CNW study here</a>, which also links to an interesting interview with Spinella of CNW. I'm not sure if you read much of the study itself, but its conclusion is: "To be quite up front, there is no actual conclusion to this study. It is, hopefully, only a beginning of a discussion about the social cost of energy." The study's hardly a win for the hummer. Um, the hummers.

Nevermind the fact that the Toyota Prius requires so many specialized fabication processes that if you figure in the total expected energy cost to manufacture, drive, and recycle the Prius over it's lifetime versus the Hummer's lifetime, the Prius will use aproximately 3 times as much energy....
