I Heart the Hybrid
September 25th, 2005 . by Jilly![]()
Just one more reason why our next car is gonna be a hybrid.
Here’s an excerpt of what Boing Boing posted today…
The Houston Chronicle’s Rita blog includes a post that points out one benefit of hybrid cars.
As vehicles ran out of gas during the Houston exodus (aka biggest traffic jam ever), one Chronicle employee who drove a Prius completed the 30 hour, 170 mile trek on three-quarters a tank of gas.
Other happy hybrid owners who didn’t have to stop for gas or turn off their A/C weigh in: “My folks drove to Austin from League City in their lexus hybrid and 21 hours of driving later still had 1/8 tank of gas left – plus they had my 87yr old grandfather with them and ran the air conditioner all day unlike most people who ran out of gas. 3 cheers for the hybrid!”

Sure a Hybrid has four wheels. But with a Vespa no one (except for Jason) would make fun of you.
