irseg - Whether Hybrids make economic sense depends on personal philosophies. When you factor in the benefits from the positive externalities (which can't be given a price) generated by using less gas, you might see a different picture. You're looking at the personal economic costs of buying and driving a hybrid, not the personal benefits (feels good / nice car), and the societal benefits (nicer environment / promoting change in auto technology). However, if you're only influence is personal costs, you might not see a hybrid as such a good idea. In any case, <b>honest</b> people can disagree about whether it's a good decision to buy a hybrid, based on their percieved costs and benefits.
BTW, I don't drive a hybrid.
