The local news recently featured an article about the ammount of money you would save from buying a hybrid vehicle and they found that it would actually cost you more money to buy a new hybrid vehicle then it would to just keep your current car. They said if you don't need a new car and you think a hybrid will pute a little extra cash in your wallet your wrong. If you factor in depriciation and cost you won't save a dime and it can cost you thousands of dollars in money. I quess it's a mental thing if you regulary fill up your car and it cost you $30, you buy a hybrid and now pute in $20 making you think it's costing you less. I'll stick with my 2000 9-3SE and enjoy it. The price of gas will come down and people will stop complaining.
