| The gas savings for the hybrid depends a lot on the type of driving you will do. If its mostly stop and go the hybrid is good. If its mostly on freeways during non-rush hour the gas only might get better mileage. Check the sticker for city versus highway mpg for both models.
Economically you have to wonder about the savings with the hybrid. You can burn lots of gas for $4,000. But if you care for the environment you should consider the one that will get the best mileage for the type of driving you anticipate doing in the next ten years. |
