Ford Escape-This is the official site for Ford. Flash site.
Fuel Economy-Government
Site which lists the latest hybrids on the block. It also has information on Fuel Cells and how they will fit into the upcoming vehicles. Also find the best vehicle for fuel efficiency.
General Motors-Alternative Fueled vehicles from trucks to Buses. I'll have to pick up one of their buses for my own use. They are working in various fuels
including fuel cells, hybrids, hydrogen and more. Take a look at the short video explaining their goals.

The SHEP (stored hydraulic energy propulsion) system captures energy used during braking and recycles the energy back into the vehicle at the time it needs it most; when accelerating from a dead stop. This is the time at which the engine is performing least efficiently, burning the most fuel, and emitting the most pollutants.
Tribrids-What are they? I believe the idea behind these vehicles is one that has hybrid capabilities plus an added third ability such as solar panels on top
