keep driving the car you have now. save your money for a phev when
they come out. why switch from 28 to 38 now when you can wait 2-4
years and switch to 100+.

You're living in a dream world. 2-4 years? LOL Maybe in a socialist
country, but not in America.

Socialist countries have better engineers?

I dunno. Japan is certainly more socialist than the U.S., no? But I
was speaking more to CAFE standards and the U.S. infrastructure, which
is much more slower moving than a more socialist country.

But back to this idea of 2-4 years, 100+ mpg line: First of all, where
does *most* of the energy come that charges these lithium-ion batteries?
Answer: the burning of fossil fuels. Of course, there are costs
involved in charging your battery and any mpg figure would have to be
weighted against that reality. As far as the 100+ figure...this is
really a figure given under test-only conditions. Realistically, your
talking a maximum of probably 65 mpg under the most optimum road
conditions (long freeway miles). But again, that's not factoring in the
costs associated with charging your vehicle as well as the price for the
vehicle itself, which will likely take a lifetime to catch up to the
savings one would get from owning such a vehicle. The worst thing to do
would be to buy any of these vehicles until that are mass produced, if
and when that ever happens.

IMO, this is hardly a long-term solution to our fuel needs.

The Chevy Tahoe Hybrid gets around 21mpg. Can't get close to beating
that.
You are being silly yes? I get 20mpg with a caravan.

But it's not a hybrid, therefore not as efficient for the environment.

Hybrid means that it has more than one technology integrated into the
vehicle. Hybrid does not mean efficient. The Jetta diesel gets 52mpg
and that's better than some hybrids.

Which is great except that deisel fuel takes 1.25 times as much oil to
produce per gallon compared to gasoline. Which means that on a barrel
of oil equivalency, the jetta is only getting 40 mpg, which is less
than most hybrids and comparable to the gasoline jetta. TANSTAAFL.

That's nice and all. But hybrids are better than the diesels because
they use less fuel.
name one that will go on a continuous 12 hour interstate trip and get
better than 52mpg.- Hide quoted text -

I'm not sure why you keep making these MPG comparisons.

When Hybrids run on batteries they don't even use fuel.

Please quit making yourself look so stupid.

There's really no call for rudeness.
Batteries aren't measured by the gallon. They're measured by the amp
hour.
