CCrow Champion Author Chicago Posts:13,302 Points:2,632,710 Joined:Aug 2005	Message Posted: Feb 12, 2006 1:38:42 PM Ignore CCrow Report Abuse Better for the environment by who's standards? Some people would make a statement it is better for the environment because they say so. I would need to be convinced it is truly better for the environment, then I would consider potentially paying a increase.
twowheel Champion Author Austin Posts:13,422 Points:2,887,890 Joined:Oct 2004	Message Posted: Feb 9, 2006 1:12:28 PM Ignore twowheel Report Abuse I think it would depend on how much better it was for the environment. If it were twice as good for the environment and only cost a couple of pennies more, I would go for it. If it only was 1% better for the environment and the gas price was 100% more, I am not interested.
truckdude Champion Author Twin Cities Posts:3,265 Points:1,333,820 Joined:Feb 2003	Message Posted: Feb 1, 2006 9:33:03 AM Ignore truckdude Report Abuse Not a cent more. The oil companies can pay for that with their record profits (i.e. Exxon)
DenverDonJuan Champion Author Denver Posts:33,155 Points:2,655,385 Joined:Oct 2005	Message Posted: Jan 16, 2006 8:13:30 PM Ignore DenverDonJuan Report Abuse "No More" would have to be the answer for now because I really haven't seen any factually proven "environmental improvements" made to gas in my life time. Cat converters had nothing to do with the gas other than requiring the removal of lead additives from gas because they would burn out if leaded gas was used. That actually cost me dearly because my old virgin classic antique GMC truck engine burned up from having to use the minimum low lead gas to well over $4,000+ for an engine overhaul which it didn't need before. Shouldn't there also be a "decreased" answer for this question. When the lead additive was no longer added, shouldn't the cost of the lead additive have been subtracted from the cost of the gas (reduced of course by the cost of any gas it displaced which would have to be added back) and shouldn't there be a "decreased" answer for this question?

electricwheels Sophomore Author Oregon Posts:122 Points:9,535 Joined:Oct 2005	Message Posted: Jan 9, 2006 1:35:00 PM Ignore electricwheels Report Abuse Is there a way for gas to be better for the environment? I think not. I would rather spend more on electricity for my electric car that has ZERO AIR POLLUTION than spend any more at the pump. I'd rather drive right by the gas station!
