The hybrid cars, like Honda makes, are a good idea, if they weren't so damn small.With gas going up I'm waiting for a hybrid Suburban.

From what I understand, hybrids are best in stop and go traffic, where the electric engine kicks in while stopped, then is recharged by the gasoline engine while driving. I've heard that if you do most of your driving on the freeway, you are using the gasline engine far more, and your gasoline savings are minimal. Yes? No?
