Hybrid is the way to go. There is still a gas station on every corner, and it still takes only 5 minutes every couple of weeks to “fully charge” our hybrid’s gas tank. No need for expensive electrical work in our garage. No worries about long road trips.
Plug-in hybrid is the better way. In my experience, drive using the electric motor 90 percent of the time around town; burn fossil fuel on the rare occasion I must drive more than 50 miles in a day. Plug in at night and be charged up, which does not require “expensive electrical work in [your] garage.” I have saved buckets of bucks by not buying fossilized dinosaurs.
Not too sure about that. Got stuck with a phev Jeep rental staying in a place where there was no charger available. It got only 18mpg running mostly on gas.
Not a good tradeoff vs. a “regular” hybrid that would have gotten twice the mpg.
It is amazing that the US government was supporting all of these foreign businesses with our tax credit dollars….
It’s amazing that you think that’s what the tax credits did.
