I get so tired of reading such biased BS...I put gas in tank and drive, count number of miles, divide by number of gallons = mpg.

Actually it's true. They calculate the amount of carbon in the gasoline, then measure the amount of carbon that comes from the exhaust pipe and from that calculate how much fuel it's burning. It's more accurate than trying to measure the amount of fuel burned by filling the tank.
What's BS is the fact that they think it's somehow skewing the results of hybrids in some way. Poor research.
