Re: Yes, hybrids can mean savings

You better read your warranty if that is what you believe

want to hear about the car that person
prefers, but when CR says something they do not want to hear about the car
that person prefers, all of a sudden it is only CRs opinion. The fact it
is not ONLY CRs opinion, every buff magi that has analyzed the pros and cons
of owning a hybrid over a conventionally powered twin have come to be of the
same 'opinion,' hybrids do not save money, even at $4 a gallon, but they
use less fuel for those that can afford to help save the planet. Educate
yourself, do a goole search of, Do hybrids save money?

Personally I could not care less where one choose to spend their money, but
one is delusional if they think they are saving money on fuel. One must
pay a lot more to buy a Pruis than if they had purchased a similarly
equipped Corolla and until they save enough on the difference in fuel
mileage between the two, that have not saved penny on fuel yet. Nor will
they in five years if you do the math.

By the way the high voltage battery pack warranty is prorated, just like the
warranty on all other batteries, there is no free lunch ;)
