In 2005 we saw the fuel prices so high that many had chosen to buy hybrid vehicles and they quickly sold out. There were waiting lists at Toyota and Honda for all models. And the Toyota Prius was car of the year. The United States Congress and Senate passed an Energy Bill, which had many incentives for those who bought Hybrid Vehicles. Many of these tax breaks started on January 1, 2006, which meant some car buyers had waited until 2006 to buy the cars that they wanted.
Meanwhile Daimler Chrysler and other Auto Makers are going all out with incentives to get people to buy their gas guzzling SUV models like the Jeeps. Offering $58.00 per month payments, $1,000 rebates and free oil changes, maintenance and gas allowance for two-years. With those sorts of incentives they are sure to sell vehicles. Yet you can expect the Hybrid Vehicle trends to accelerate even so.
In fact expect in 2006 for new models to come out to meet the consumer demand and alleviate some of these waiting lists. Also expect fuel prices to inch back up fueling the further demand for such vehicles throughout 2006 and into 2007. The free market and consumer choice to save fuel may just save the environment yet, say some Global Warming Alarmists. Just think the answer to their solution all along is free markets and capitalism and not more rules and regulations, which is exactly the opposite of what the opposing party of the current leadership in the US stands for. Think on this in 2006.
