I was this close to buying a hybrid... then Calif. pulled them off the diamond lane and that was a deal breaker for me (could have cut my commute from 45 to 30 minutes).

Did a lot of research... hybrids are good for 100K miles before they start needing expensive maintenance (generally speaking)

The new gas only Hyundai Elantra gets a claimed 40 mpg.

There is a Pruis BBS much like this where you can learn a lot.

Be prepared for the hybrid haters that will post here in 3... 2... 1...
