A comical music video about driving hybrid cars to aid the environment-a comical video on a serious matter. Starring-Nate, Liam, Austin, Mark. (See Lyrics Below)

we roll in a hybrid
we are environmentally sound
we roll in a hybrid
when we hit the town
gas and electric
pumpin less junk into the air
bein a service to the atmosphere
we’re aware and we’re sparin the air
we roll in a hybrid

we break the traditions
forget about the emissions
and start the ignition
while the others sit wishin
they were like us cause
we roll in a hybrid

any fool can make his engine rev
but whats really cool is ridin in a PZEV
with our hybrid technology
we get mad props on our MPG
we roll in a hybrid

all the exhaust automobiles spew
were trying to reduce the CO2
so the air is clean, and our skys blue
cause, Mother Nature, IOU
we roll in a hybrid

if guzzlin gas is your predilection
then you’re drivin in the wrong direction
the problem is our oil addiction
hybrids are the treatment for this affliction
we roll in a hybrid

my friends and I, we like to carpool
burnin less fuel on the way to our school
the dudes at the station hardly every see us
cause of the gas mileage of my 06 Prius
we roll in a hybrid

there are many ways we can battle air pollution
and here’s how you can become part of the solution
if you’re lookin for wheels, go and get a hybrid
you’ll see how it appeals, like my homies and I did
we roll in a hybrid

so everybody, please join the fight
against global warming and our oil appetite
we gotta preserve the planet for human habitation
so lets make this country a hybrid nation

TOYOTA FUEL CELL VEHICLES

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

On December 12, 2002, Toyota Motor Corporation began limited marketing of the hydrogen-powered TOYOTA FCHV (fuel cell hybrid vehicle) in the United States and Japan. Considered to be the closest thing yet to the ultimate eco-car, the TOYOTA FCHV was developed using Toyota’s original hybrid technology—derived from the Prius, the world’s first mass-produced hybrid vehicle—as its core technology.

As R&D on the TOYOTA FCHV continues, the technology that drives it is accelerating toward widespread use. At the same time, we are exploring the potential of a wide range of power sources—including not only hydrogen, but also gasoline, diesel, electricity and alternative fuels—while considering what the optimum eco-car would be for the energy situation, infrastructure and regulations in each country.

Ford Escape Hybrid – Kelley Blue Book’s Review

Sunday, March 7th, 2010

www.kbb.com
While many other crossover SUVs are getting sleeker, more urban exteriors, the Ford Escape Hybrid has received a rugged redesign. The heightened beltline and sculpted hood remind us that the Escape Hybrid may offer great fuel economy, but first and foremost it is an SUV.

Ford’s design team takes its environmentally friendly vision even further by using 100-percent recycled seat materials, and Ford purports that, through a carbon off-set program, it has countered any greenhouse gases created by its production. Add to this SUV-like versatility, cargo room and four-wheel drive, and the Ford Escape Hybrid seems a natural choice for those who like to rough it without roughing-up the planet.
