Would you like to own a hybrid car?
Asked at Massachusetts Street on May 06, 2007
“Yes. Mainly because of the environment, to make a stand against the burning of fossil fuels and to help save the planet. Saving on gas would actually be a secondary reason.”
— Wayne Hawkins, jazz musician/teacher, Shawnee
“No. I think they're funny looking. They would have to change the style of the cars.”
— Kelly Bubeck, Kansas University freshman, Lawrence
“Yeah. I'd love to, but there's no way I could ever afford one. I wish they would consider having really big state and federal tax breaks for people who are willing to invest in alternative energy.”
— Jeff Listerman, data analyst, rural Lawrence
“Yeah. I would like to because they use less gas, are better for the environment and you get a tax credit for buying one. I think it's important for all of us to consider the environment when buying a new car.”
