I remember watching on TV a bunch of colleges campus and other GM sponsored companies that have been making 100mpg+ 4,000lb vehicles for a few years now. Where are they and how much longer do we have to put up with and be excited over 40mpg gas hybrids when they could put a diesel in it and get 100mpg+ Volt's on the highways.

I would like to get the wife a new vehicle next year but I don't do well with regret and research the heck out of my purchases and know there is something better on the horizon considering we will be out of affordable fuel is 15 years. I might just lease something or buy a really nice 08+ used car.
