I have long understood that high breads run on yeast, not some fancy combination of fossil fuel and electric power.
That's exactly watt I would theorize.

Yeah, maybe if they would sink some more ‘dough’ into it, we could get a ‘rise’ in our mileage, and have some more ‘bread’ left in our pockets.

Just to add my $0.02.....
Electromagnetic fields are created by alternating current (AC) like the 110 in your house, or more readily the radio frequency RF generated by radios, TV transmitters, radars, cell phones, etc. In fact, radio “waves” ARE electromagnetic fields.
Batteries produce direct current (DC) and do not give off electromagnetic fields. Maybe there is some EMF from the electric motors on these cars, but it would be negligible.
My background? 30 years as an electronics tech.

I save fuel, though not as much as with a hybrid, by driving my 69 VW.
And I have no car payments!

That was a pun, and “Pun” spelled backwards is “NuP”, so that is a “a nup” out of you! :-)

Apparently this phenomenon is NOT widespread, as the market for used hybrids is very very strong — used hybrids are not cheap.

"But after all of these years and millions of people who ride subways every day that run on around 750VDC, the hybrid cars on 200-300VDC systems are causing the problems. Right.Not to mention the Northeast Corridor from Washington to Boston, some of Metro North, and much of the Philly Suburban Electrics operate off 11,500 VAC..
Hmm on the other hand... Liberals... Northeast....could THIS be the problem????

Well I congratulate you on the savings then. We’re fortunate enough to not have a daily commute or a high non-business mileage burden.
When it comes time to buy a new vehicle, I really do *want* the AWD Escape hybrid. It won’t have to make economic sense to me — it’s what I want. That’s a small part of the American dream ;-) Not sure I’ll get the full ‘green’ package though — just the full-zoot stereo and the moon roof.
Last note — a very conservative friend of mine has a Prius and loves it. He likes the torque (also drives a Corvette).

Since the average saving of the hybrid drivers over is something like $.12 a mile your wife must be driving about 3300 miles a month. Exactly. Or her previous vehicle was a Peterbilt.

My vehicle does not get the miliage that I really need, I commute 90 miles a day, but it is paid off. It does not make economic sense to change at this time.
So yes, I understand your position.

This just HAS to be the righteous truth!!! If my peanut whistle cell phone is creating tumors in my brain, or on my waist line, then these huge electromagnetic currents just HAVE to be filling my entire body with terrible tumors and torment!!!

They must mean the engine.
The magnetic fields from the engine dwarf the batteries.
To: B Knotts
Chevy Trailblazer. It got worse mpg than the 4wd Suburban that we had before.
When you are going from 13 mpg to 31 mpg, and drive over 2000 miles a month, the savings are dramatic.

Purchasers of hybrid vehicles, which are subsidized by the federal government United States Taxpayers and championed by environmental activists as a way to reduce gasoline consumption, are trading in their vehicles because of health fears concerning electromagnetic fields created by the hybrid batteries, says John Dale Dunn, a policy advisor for the American Council on Science and Health.

Some hybrid vehicle owners are complaining of a variety of health problems allegedly caused by strong electromagnetic currents from the cars' batteries. Reported ailments and concerns include rising blood pressure, drowsiness behind the wheel and higher leukemia risks.No; those symptoms are typical of buyers remorse; after realizing you'll NEVER save any money with this stupid purchase!

That’s the understanding that’s been ingrained in me.
