Why DO we still drive internal combustion gas powered cars?

Ok, I know why, but really, it's a testament how there is no true consumer choice when it comes to what you personally drive. We have been made completely and utterly dependent on our gas powered cars. It's great that there is a huge demand for hybrids. It still requires gas fuel.

I did not know the story of the EV1 electric car from GM until I watched the movie Who Killed the Electric Car?

Such a neat car.
