It can keep the ICE from starting if you're just starting the car to move it a matter of yards. That's all I ever use it for.
Possible conclusions: 1) People who buy hybrids are tempted to drive more. 2) People who drive more tend to buy hybrids. Cracked went with the...
Remember the CNW "dust to dust" study? The one that said that gave the Prius 100,000 miles to amortize costs and jack up its cost/mile? If you...

Congrats on the new Prius. I own a 2010 and really enjoy it. The ECO light above the HSI bar that roughly correlates with pedal pressure will...
Yep. We don't own a minivan, but we own an SUV-ish people-mover with a third row and minimal towing capacity. Why? Because the wife wasn't willing...
Glenn Beck? Is that you? Anyway, enough with the politics. :focus:
If you did it per mile (to account for usage and wear on roads), wouldn't it also make sense to take the weight of the vehicle into account?
