the ad then compares the ecalade hybrids 20 mpg to the mini cooper, mercedes benz c class, bmw x3 and volvo xc90 saying it gets better mpg than all of them.

nice fat 2 page full color ad for their nice fat hybrid
Seats more than 4, so it would make a good bus. 95% of my miles driven are alone, I really don't need a bus. Yes, its better than a non-hybrid and there are people who use them like some with lots of kids, etc.
