The Weather Channel and Green Machines

Plus, take The Weather Channel’s “Green Vehicle” test. How does your car (or better yet, your next car) rank? How much does it cost annually to fuel? How many tons of greenhouse gas emissions does it produce? How many miles per gallon, and what’s its “air pollution score”? I was amazed at how disparate (and important) the results were.

For example: The average driver will spend over $2,500 more at the pump each year by driving a Dodge Ram 1500 rather than a Toyota Prius. That’d be twenty grand in eight years—the cost of a car!

See for yourself.


(Note: At this link, I’ve already picked five cars, just for kicks. To see others, just “remove” one or two of these and select a new vehicle.)
