Very broadly, they found that an LCFS would buffer the economy against global oil price spikes, trim demand for petroleum, and lessen upward pressure on gas prices. An LCFS is a hybrid of a regulatory and market policy instrument. Treat all crude oils as part of the overall pool of transportation fuels. We are not advocates.

However, unlike today’s hybrid drive Le Mans racers, or the new Acura NSX hybrid supercar, also revealed at NAIAS ( earlier post ), the GT—nor any of the other Ford performance vehicles unveiled at NAIAS—makes no use of electric drive technology. Ford has been selling hybrids and, later plug-ins, since 2004.

The architecture is also designed to support hybrid propulsion systems and alternative fuels. The high-pressure casting method produces a more dimensionally accurate block that requires fewer machining operations than conventional sand-cast blocks. A die-cast aluminum oil pan contributes additional structural strength.

In a pre-response to that speech, having successfully advocated for plug-in hybrids like the forthcoming Chevy Volt, we propose that the President follow that speech up with a “realistic and conservative” roadmap to halve our oil use in 10 years. Oil is holding us all hostage, economically and physically. The good news?
