Default Re: Escalade Hybrid

There are sooooo many ways to making ALL vehicles more fuel efficient. I kinda think maybe the oil companies pay off these auto companies to not make the vehicles get better fuel economy. I have 2 Hummer H2's now, but my previous vehicles were Ford Excursions with the powerstroke turbo diesel.
Those things as big as they were would easily get 23 miles per gallon.
If GM would get smart and put a small diesel in the Hummer and in there pick ups and SUV's they would be amazed at how much more they could sell.
Change the ratio on the rear ends, instead of having 4:10's change them to 3:73 or 3:52 (like on Escalade) and vehicles will get more miles per gallon. I dont claim to know a lot about vehicles, but I know with a few tweaks here and there, any vehicle can be more fuel efficient. I cant figure out why GM dropped the new Diesel that was going to go in the Hummer. You can do some research on the internet and find some H2's with Duramax Diesels that are getting 25mpg..........hello GM.....can anyone hear this? Putting all these engines on the market that will run off Ethanol dont help, while its true you get it cheaper.........but your not getting as many miles per gallon.......so what are you saving? nothing at all.
