Peak? maybe just some slippery price waves.

Okay, so what would happen in 4 years when gas is $180 a barrel and conservation becomes cool? Americans may recycle their $30,000 SUV and buy a Aptera that runs on electricity. The economy gets a boost too cause theres more people with jobs building these darn cars.
There is an incredible amount of spare capacity in conservation itself if our beloved economy depended on it.

I am about as concerned about peak oil as I am concerned about the obesity rates in the U.S. I would just leap for joy as the gas prices increase and grossly oversized vehicles become as obsolete as the dinosaurs.

– The Aptera, with a range of 190 miles between charges, is intended to sell for around $30,000.
