for those of us who care about driving, a jag you are with 420 horsepower is an emotional purchase. no one needs that much power, but it's nice to know you've got it if you ever wanted to ram a Prius with Obama08 stickers off the Golden Gate bridge... ]]>Nov 14th 2007 8:48PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/
It is a political view. If we really wanted to reduce the amount of fuel we use and the amount of emissions we expel, there are many other areas to go after than cars themselves.

Oversized homes that have become the new fad but aren't needed, commutes of 20+ miles each day to work, driving in gridlock which reduces real world fuel economy, etc.

Instead of hearing how every car that comes out needs to be left on the drawing board and replaced with (fill in your saviour technology of choice) powered vehicle, why don't these people focus on writing their congress person on doing something about things that are controllable now like making construction outfits finish a road project in a realistic time frame so we aren't increasing traffic (thereby reducing fuel economy) every day?

Nope, killing any interesting car is the answer and replacing it with an ugly ass Prius that you can plug in (and has magical technology that is still under realistic development), all while driving the thing 60 miles a day to get to work so you can heat and pay the mortgage on the 6,000 sq ft house for you, your wife and your two kids.

I could go on, but I won't. Suffice it to say that posts like yours don't belong here. If you want to be environmentally responsible, buy a 25 year old Mercedes diesel and run it on veggie oil, don't buy an new car full of toxic waste.

And before you reply to me, you might want to take into account that I have actually been doing environmental work since I got a masters in environmental policy in 1991, way before yuppie fashion victims like you decided it was the cool bandwagon du jour.

based on FACTS, oil will NOT disappear in my lifetime, your lifetime or the lifetime of anybody currently living on this planet. your position is NOT an environmental one - it is a PURELY POLITICAL ONE. don't try to claim that oil will run out and we'll be sitting with our 8mpg cars scratching our heads, because nobody living today will ever see that happen...at least not because of lack of oil supply.]]>Nov 14th 2007 10:41PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/Nov 15th 2007 3:20AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/
I make my contribution to ensure that our planet doesn't go to pot. I'm not saying every car should be a Prius, but I'm not so negative as to call people who are aware of our role on this earth, morons. What good is that doing? Insulting people doesn't do any good, and doesn't solve anything. It's not a political issue, it's an environmental one... regardless what you say. It's because of people like you who are dividing this world up into little groups rather than bringing it together.

oh, and that nickel factory in ontario that someone was talking about, is bs. that's a story from the 50's, and it's all been cleaned up, and only 1% of the nickel mined there goes into the Prius. The rest is used for other things...]]>Nov 15th 2007 7:18AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/1) The V8-powered Mercedes E-Class (the E550) starts at $61,000; and
2) Even the V6-powered E-Class starts at $51,000; and
3) The V8-powered BMW 5-series starts at $58,500; and
4) Even the 2007 Jaguar S-Type started at $45,000:
I move that this price is altogether reasonable, justified and acceptable.]]>Nov 14th 2007 8:31PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/Nov 14th 2007 8:35PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/Nov 14th 2007 9:58PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/
Great pricing. It is below the 545i and E550, and better equipped at that. ]]>Nov 14th 2007 8:45PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/Nov 14th 2007 11:25PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/Nov 14th 2007 9:03PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/11/14/2009-jaguar-xf-will-range-from-49-975-to-62-975/
As far as their bodies, that's up to the car makers.

Why haven't they utilized the proper batteries, and why haven't they designed them to be sexy looking?

Oil as a resource is headed straight for the grave and consumers are waking up to the fact that they don't want to be dragged along with it.]]>Nov 14th 2007 9:12PM
