RE: Are hybrids worth the extra-cost?
15,000 miles per year divided by the Prius 50 MPG equals 300 gallons of gasoline per year...Uh...50MPG? Not quite folks...All the prius owners I've talked to get a very different, disappointing 43MPG combined highway/city! This is closer to 350 gallons of gasoline. This is a 14% difference in cost to what this article claims!
But you wanna know what's most sad and disappointing about all these cars? They are all so darn FUGLY! I wouldn't even want to be a passenger in one of these cars for fears of looking like a complete dork! Then there's the outright smugness of these hybrid drivers! Talk about entitled drivers! No...not me thanks! For as long as I can afford to, I will continue to drive my gas-guzzler!...So remember this you tree-huggers...for every gallon you save, and every ton of CO2 you don't put in the atmosphere, I am burning 10 gallons of gas and dumping 100 tons of CO2...You'll never win!
