25-30 minutes on city streets is not the best kind of commute for an HCH....Look at the Mileage Database very closely for short commutes, and most of those people are in the lower half of the bracket.

What? Are you saying it is better, with that kind of commute, to drive a non-hybrid?
Hybrids get better mileage than non-hybrids in ALL situations. Also hybrids have lower emmisions, nice for people who breath. Another point, you don't have to drive like a wierdo and try to get 60 MPG like me. You can just drive normaly.
You will be getting better mileage than if you drove the same way in a non-hybrid.[/b][/quote]
No, what I said was that the commute they described is not the best kind of commute
*FOR AN HCH.........* I also said what the HCH can get
"is definitely more than any non-Hybrid could get".... 
What I was pointing out is that HWY COMMUTES are the best kind of commute for an HCH, which is rated better on HWY miles, and the mileage database on this website proves that ..... B)
And since the Prius II excels at CITY driving, I pointed out that a Prius might be a better choice for a city commute like that one....unfortunately it is so much more expensive than an HCH.....
