Whatever's is cleanest and most Earth-friendly, which would probably be hydrogen at the moment. Though I don't mind a small gasoline car. No Hummers or SUVs for me, though. (*growls in the general direction of gas-guzzlers*)

I'm not pointing fingers at anyone, but I know a lot of people who say hydrogen just want to be thought of as a good, earth saver.

But really, I don't really care. I won't be able to drive for another 3 years or so, and wont be able to fully have a lincense for another 4-5.

Hydrogen is the most clean and earth friendly and doesn't pollute or anything, but the price for a hydrogen car is outrageous, and getting hydrogen would cost a lot. If the choice was for someone to give me the car, I would pick hydrogen. But thats not how it is, or will be in that case, so I would pick a gasoline because it is the cheapest and most efficient. I wouldn't want a HUMMER or a big SUV but I would be happy with a car that uses really little gasoline.

Well, I'll save you my ranting and go away. I don't want this to turn into a debate.

I'll probably drive a gasoline at first because it costs less, but once I'm swimming in cash hydrogen. Or maybe by then they'll have found something even more fuel-efficient and better for the environment.

Hydrogen cars aren't *made* and the few test models built have been extremely dangerous due to the small explosion it takes to start them. Also, this type of vehicle would drive the oil industry out of business, tossing the economy to the dogs. While I would certainly be interested and most likely buy a Hydrogen car, there will not be such a car, lest we find a way to convert the money made from oil to money made from...water.
