i just did a drive across country roads a while ago, and measured my distance and kept tabs on fuel consuption.

My average run of the mill sedan got close to 29mpg(rough translation to american units from metric). I think hybrids should be able to reach 50 pretty soon.

but seriously, I did not know that US fuel is not taxed like we are. Surely the govt could see the benefit and tax you just a little and spend that on developing other fuel sources.
