As press days for the 2009 NAIAS wind down it occurs to me that this year’s show was scripted perfectly for congressional consumption. You want future tech? We’ve got full-electric vehicle announcements (Ford’s 2010 commercial vehicle and Dodge’s Circuit plus Toyota’s FT-EV and the Mercedes E-Cell), and we’ll show you more plug-in EVs than you can shake a Con-Ed bill at. Ethanol? That’s so 2007. Fuel cells? Their Right Honorablenesses are skeptical that’ll pay off before the loans come due. Diesel? Wheredya think ya are, Eur’p?
