The only other two money considerations that occur to me would be more state tax on the more expensive car, and any state perks. Beyond that, it...
fshagan, Are you taking the tax credit into account for the Prius ? What credits are you applying for the HHR ? Am I right in thinking this is...
I guess my first post was unclear. If you have X Kwh of battery capacity charged from the grid, it will displace petrol use for an equivalent...
