The American consumer is in a good position with lower oil prices. If they go up, then we will pump more. It's a win-win situation with modern oil extraction and costs. Meanwhile, CAFE standards require the automakers to keep making them more efficiently, which we are seeing great improvements. Now we need to teach the public how to drive efficiently and that it's hip... and to plan ahead before commuting.
