Bio Fuels, Car Manufacturers and Future Challenges

 
Author: Lance Winslow
 

The United States government is steadfast in finding a solution to breaking our addiction to Middle Eastern foreign oil. This potential challenge will not be easy to grow our own fuel. Biofuels such as Biodiesel and Ethanol are one way that America can break her addiction. However even if we can grow between 15 and 20% of our fuel by 2012 we still face other uphill challenges.

Currently automakers are building about 17 million cars per year and we need them to build cars, which use less gasoline, but they are not doing that. The average car other Japanese automakers gets 23 miles a gallon, while the average car made by US automakers gets 19 miles to the gallon. Both of those figures need to be around 30 miles per gallon and we need to help of car manufacturers to build more high breads and automobiles, which run on E85 Ethanol.

It is difficult to make changes in consumers buying behavior for fuel in the marketplace when we have large demand and waiting lists for people who wish to buy hybrids. Additionally the prices for high breads are too high and this is causing more people to buy regular automobiles, which is not helping the situation.

Additionally we have companies like Daimler Chrysler, which is selling new Jeep grand Cherokees for no money down plus a rebate with two years of free gasoline and oil changes. These types of incentives are counter to the direction we need our country to move to. The more this happens the further down the road it will be before we achieve victory in the marketplace and help break America's addiction to foreign Middle Eastern oil. Please consider this dilemma in 2006.
