going back to the hybrid issue... don't know if its posted yet but I spoke with a few oil refinery gurus, and they said that europe and japan already had 50mpg + diesels long before we had hybrid technology. VW diesel beetle comes to mind. And that toyota was just waiting to get a return in there hybrid investment before bring in diesels... Now I got pretty pissed when I hear this ...but then realized that we have more newer cars on the road per capita than any other country..? just a though.
