Don't forget to multiply out the fuel savings versus the additional purchase cost of a hybrid if you are only wanting it to save money. Most likely you won't. I am getting 28 mpg on each tank for my 02 V6 4WD and a previous poster said they got 40 mpg in their hybrid. At 10,000 miles a year the hybrid uses 250 gallons at 2.80 for an annual $700. Mine would be 357 gallons at 2.80 for an annual of $1,000. So over 5 years you save $1,500, but I think the cost of the hybrid might be a bit more than an additional 1500. So your primary purpose to get one is to use less fossil fuel and helping the environment by spending more, not saving money because with the current technology and gas prices you won't. When they get 80 mpg and gas gets above $4 a gallon, then it will be a savings.
