In his weekly radio and online address Saturday, Obama said Detroit automakers are on track to build cars that average nearly 55 miles per gallon by 2025, doubling current mileage standards.

"That means folks will be able to fill up every two weeks instead of every week, saving the typical family more than $8,000 at the pump over time," he said. "That's a big deal, especially as families are yet again feeling the pinch from rising gas prices."


whos families are you going to fit in a car that get 55 miles per gallon, Obama's Own wife cant get her big ass in one of them cars ..its a F tuna can ...and this crazy basterd is going to trun all are food in to Biofuel to cut the fuel price

55 miles a gallon is a great goal and the First Lady is really pretty. I think you need your eyes examined.

Everything I've heard about the First Lady is positive.

Seriously, can you at least attempt to look over what you type before posting it.

I kinda like your threads.

They are a fun change of pace, but it is so hard to read the portions that you don't copy and paste.

Is English your first language?

Serious question.

If your going to gripe about it have a valid reason..


So I have to go 40+ thousand in debt to save a few bucks a week on gas... that math doesnt work for me.


When Hybrid prices are a little more stable and realistic sure Ill get one till then money wise, keeping my truck is the better answer.

There is absolutely no viable plan in any quarter that will get us to an average of 55mpg by 2025.

Fuel efficiency is the answer to high gas prices.


Couple years ago I had to replace my SUV. I did my research and I replaced my SUV with a trail rated jeep that gets double the gas mileage of my previous jeep.

I can't tow with it - but other than that, it's capable of doing all the off-roading I was doing with my previous jeep and I spend half as much on gas. Oh and the vehicle was less than 20k out the door.


I am super duper awesome!!!

No idea what Obama is talking about, but I know my Prius was about 20k, fits four full sized adults comfortably and knocks down over 50mpg on the highway. And its four years old. I think they've gotten more efficient since then.

People are never going to give up their giant SUVs. They'll send the entire Democratic party packing before they'll do that.
