This would hpave been a compromise. Something politicians do not even know how to spell.
I just bought a new car last week. My 12.5 yo Hyundai Genesis' engine gave up the ghost. Blown head gasket.

I seriously looked at hybrids, but there's no way I'm driving a Prius and nothing else fit my needs/budget.

I wound up buying an Acura TXL with only 14K miles on it, that was coming out of the dealer's loaner inventory. Still under warranty. Perfect condition, not a mark on it, serviced by the dealer, and I saved almost $15K off of a new one. It serves my needs perfectly... For now...
