    "Los Angeles (CA) - Cars shows are usually about the meanest, fastest and in recent years the biggest cars. But at this year's Los Angeles Auto Show the greenest cars are taking the spotlight. Companies are now showing off fuel cell concept cars to go along with their older hybrid vehicles. General Motors even announced the first ever plug-in hybrid vehicle amidst the protest of an environmental activist."

    That is rather tempting... isn't it?

    That pledge "to make a plug-in hybrid version of the Saturn Vue SUV" is so horribly vague, you do wonder how many they will actually deliver. Based upon the past, we really may only get just a few.

    The fact that smog-related emissions aren't ever discussion and the fact that "Green Line" isn't actually green (only LEV), the sincerity of their intentions should be questioned. I for one am not going to award any merit until it is actually earned.

    So right now, all this talk without any action is just hype.

    Show me the vehicles.
