Let’s talk electric vehicles:  I’m excited about electric vehicles not only because of how clean they run, but because they represent a major opportunity to change the power structure in our society. It nearly goes without saying that big oil companies wield untold power that is not limited to influencing media and government. The price of gas affects everything about modern society. I’m of the belief that one of the best weapons we have against the corruption of huge corporations and government is to deprive them of our dollars.  “Who makes more from the sale of a truck: Chevrolet or Chevron?” is one of David West’s most elegant points made during the show.

Enter the 100 mpg full size truck.

Game. Changed.  Check out the links below, listen to the interview, then get in line. VIA is the vehicle of the very near future.
