Well all of that is fine and dandy if you live in a city.........but a hybrid anything is of little use where I live. Much of the winter you wouldn't get out of my yard without a 4x4. The little economy size pickups won't haul goose neck horse trailers or hay, or cattle......they are OK for weekend hunters etc, but not much good for anything else.

I can only survive with a full size pick-up 4x4 with a decent towing capacity. Just the gravel roads where I live would beat your average car to death in a couple of years.

The cost of electricity in many places and the inflated initial cost of the hybrids will outweigh the fuel savings anyways. This has been documented by a number of agencies already.
