I've looked into hybrids and from reading some reviews, I am considering buying one. I am 25, in school, live in a big city, and commute about 15m/day, 5 days a week. I am also planning on relocating and driving to other parts of the US within the next two years. Right now I am thinking the HCH would be my best choice, does anyone have other suggestions?

I am willing to put up with some quarks, but I need a car that is reliable. So, is a buying a hybrid in my best interest or should I go with a standard fuel efficient car?
