Domestic Drilling For Oil or Alternative Fuel Cars: Which will happen first?

Some feel that drilling for more oil within the United States is the solution for lowering gas prices. Others believe using alternate fuels such as hydrogen, electricity, ethanol, biodiesel will relieve our wallets from high gas prices. Which strategy do you believe will happen first?

Answered Domestic Drilling For Oil: This will lower gas prices and gasoline powered vehicles will continue to dominate.

domestic drilling for oil will happen first whether or not that is going to be the answer still needs to be seen Since for the most part its big oil that has the money to either invent or supress any alternate fuel sorce
I was drilling shallow oil and gas wells in the early 80's they just capped them off to be used when it was economicly feasable so they will persue new technologies to recover the proven fields and serch for new untouched fields that lie under the tabacco valley in Ct for one and other promising geographical areas

    I would say both, but that wasn't an option.

    Answered Alternative Fuel Cars: Hydrogen and electric cars are already being produced. Alternative propulsion will happen first.

    I believe bio-fuels will happen before domestic drilling. The environmentalists will never allow domestic drilling, even if it means we go without heat, electricity, or fuel for transportation.

    even if we started drilling now we would not get a return on new drilling for over 8 years.
    We will have a few electric cars in less than 4 years

    It will be a forced issue but one long overdue.

    I'm leaning toward domestic drilling. They have the technology for alternative fuel cars, but there is too much big money involved in stopping it. Its been sabotaged before.

    I'd sure like to see some Hydrogen cars and fuel hit the market.

    There seems to be so much politics involved with this issue... I was watching CNN last night about N. Korea. Did you know we are exporting OIL to them? (sigh)
