"our second car"

Sorry, but I had to lol about that. Yeah alright, go green on your second car.

Most households have two cars, so I don't understand what you find funny about that.
Not really, no. Maybe in rural America. But in the rest of the world, it is not normal.
It's normal in suburban America and much of urban America as well, outside of the largest few cities. I'm not saying it's good or bad, but it is normal here.
Fine - so I am laughing from across the pond, where it is not normal. Not in the cities.

In the cities in Europe, you don't really need a car, let alone two. From that perspective, pondering going green on a second car looks a bit funny.
