David Champion of Consumer Reports on TV consumer show …

Hi All:

___Anyone that has followed hybrid developments and know about Consumer reports probably has read of statements coming from David Champion. I just saw a TV interview with him on the "American Consumer" (a PBS based - Consumer show I think). With that, he appears to be a Brit and went over the basics of car purchases and choices for the average American consumer. Although when he got into the FE discussion (only about 1.5 minutes of a an 6 – 7 minute segment and he was off again imho) but at least he was consistent and honest in his own way about good picks and safety features to look for in the case of a future automobile purchase one may decide to consider no matter the style, type, make, or model. Interesting segment even if he was off on the FE side of the coin … And he was not bashing hybrids for a change (I don’t think they were going to go there) this time around

___Good Luck

___Wayne
