The other thing is, there are autos getting damn near the MPG as a hybrid,
all the hybrids tout exceptional gas mileage but, as many owners have found
they get dramatically less. Yes I agree unless something dramatically
changes with the hybrids they will go the way of Mother Earth News. The
proof is in the ownership a friend has a Toyota Corolla hybrid paid several
thousands of $$ more to own a car that touts to be green and yet only gets a
few more MPG as her previous Corolla. Go figure.
