Aeromodding to improve mileage is MUCH less expensive than hybridizing to improve mileage and is especially effective if most of your driving is on the highway (but I can still get 55mpg around town with a moderate amount of hypermiling). If this recession/depression continues for very long, a lot of folks might not be able or willing to pay the higher prices for a hybrid.
