]]> Comment on Mexico Opposes Ethanol by Eric OKeefe http://www.landreport.com/2008/06/mexico-opposes-ethanol/#comment-43 Eric OKeefe Mon, 07 Jul 2008 19:30:11 +0000 http://www.landreport.com/?p=226#comment-43 You bring up an excellent point, Brock. Everywhere I turn, people are assigning blame to producers, to oil companies, to OPEC - to anyone but ourselves. We use one-quarter of the world's oil, and 70 percent goes into cars and trucks. Why hasn't Detroit stepped up to the plate and shown any leadership by getting more fuel-efficient cars on the market decades ago? You want to know the real reason why Toyota and Honda continue to gain U.S. market share? Their workers aren't any better. I say that as the proud owner of Chevy Tahoe manufactured in Arlington, Texas. The reason their market share continues to increase is because Japan has no domestic oil industry. They have to be fuel efficient. Now that American consumers are making the same demands, the Japanese auto manufacturers are cleaning up. As usual, who will be showing up late to the dance? The Big Three - if they're still around. You bring up an excellent point, Brock. Everywhere I turn, people are assigning blame to producers, to oil companies, to OPEC - to anyone but ourselves.

The writer, Bill Winke, uses 1031s himself, which is generally the way we assign stories: hands-on landowners talking about their own experiences. I took a look at your website and saw that Exeter is based in Southern California. Is the pace of 1031s picking up, slowing down, or holding steady in that market? Are you seeing many being done with recreational properties? Glad to hear you enjoyed it.

You have done a great job at concisely summarizing the 1031 exchange requirements! The more real estate investors, especially land owners, understand the benefits and requirements of completing a 1031 exchange the better and more informed investment decisions they can make.

We could never grow enough corn to replace traditional fossil fuels. Mean while we're putting more and more pressure on our livestock produces to keep us feed at reasonable food prices. Let's give the farmers a break and put more pressure on the Automobile industry to build fuel efficient automobiles.
