Don't most of the car guys on here laugh at 54mpg.
I thought the new prius gets fairly close to that.
The problem with the hybrid pickup concept is they dont really do any better on the highway than their gas counter parts. The GM hybrids do about 2mpg better on the highway, but they also come standard with LRR tires, an air dam or chin spoiler, come with a standard bed cover and possibly grill shutters. So it ain't the "hybrid technology" getting those +2mpg.
And I thought you were all for the banning of natural gas fracking?
Now you want to power cars off it.
