I've had a few fun experiences related to my Hybrid car and thought it might be fun to start a new tread as such.

Here are two of my experiences:
My father is 68 years old and been studying the evolution of the auto and read many hybrid articles.
I can't describe the look on his face and his "controlled" excitement when he first saw my HCH. He looked carefully under the hood, commenting "Oh! they did this THAT way...and look, they did that THIS way!" (etc) He even commented on the large diameter exhaust pipe!
Then I handed him my keys. His eyes sort of sparkled in an exitement. I think he expected to ride, not drive. He really enjoyed himself that day.

Another more recent chance I had was at a restaurant with my wife & her friend.
The waitress wanted to know what MPG my wife's friend's new Jeep got
because her old jeep only got 8MPG. She was so very worried about the growing gas prices!
What a tempting conversation to jump into !!!
Oh, the frozen deer look she had when I said my car sometimes gets over 60MPG!
"Whadd' ya drive, a tricycle?" she said.
Well, I think she was looking for a large vehicle but it was fun anyway!

Do you have any fun things to mention?
Steve & family :o

Efficient drivers do it better.
1003 miles a tank personal record. 74MPG calculated. HCH1 CVT
