A CNN article reports on several Governors that are parking their SUVs to encourage conservation. Here are some Governors that have switched to cars with better gas mileage.
Florida Governor Jeb Bush is now driving a white Ford Escape hybrid.
"It's kind of hard to be arguing to conserve gasoline when you're driving around in a Ford Expedition that guzzles it down at a 6- to 8-mile per gallon clip," Bush said last month.
New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson is driving a Ford Escape hybrid.
"You need to practice what you preach," Richardson said.
Maine Governor John Baldacci is driving a Chevrolet Impala. And Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty and Iowa Governor Tom Vilsack have switched to SUVs that run on a blend of gas-ethanol called E85.
