    Default Govenors are cutting back.

    Govenors are cutting back on the use of their SUV's, switching to hybrid SUV's, using ethenol burning SUV's or getting out of SUV's all together.

    Unfortunately, at this point, even with the hike in gas prices, hybrids are economically pointless. It would take years to make up the savings in gas since hybrids are still significantly more expensive than their normal combustion-engined (and often quite fuel efficient) counterparts.
