Can you elaborate on this? Generally, the energy cost of making a car is about 10% of the energy it will consume over its lifetime. Do cars differ greatly re: the environmental impact of making them?LTLFTcomposite said:...as well as an environmental responsibility one, as IMO too much attention is paid to the impact of the car's usage and not enough to what goes into making the car.

- low purchase price (prefer new, it has always worked better for me, but would consider newer used)
- low total cost of ownership
- great fuel economy
- durability/reliability
- something not too boring image-wise would be a plus, but does not need to be fancy, just basic comforts like power windows/locks
