ehh, I don't know, thats still pretty bad gas mileage. I realize we are talking SUV terms here, but thats not really impressive that it is only getting that much better gas mileage than a nonhybrid version. Can't they do a weight reduction or something for better fuel economy? Or did they do that already?
It is really rediculous how much more car companies charge for the hybrid version than the nonhybrid versions of cars. What's their rationale? Because we know that you are going to save money on gas later down the road, we are going to bend you over now and mack it to you up front with costs? Or is there something I am missing with hybrid technology that makes a hybrid car cost so much more? I am not trying to be a smartass or anything, I am really asking because I never understood that.
Also, how reliable are hybrid engines? I never see anyone driving priuses around at all, not the Honda versions of the full hybrids.
