I'm far more upset about the Camry Hybrid having a .27 coefficient of drag, while my HCH2 has .28. It's not fair. Sure, my frontal area is probably a bit lower, so my total drag may be less, but it's the principle of the matter.

But back to the topic...the Camry costs $1700 more than the HCH2, so a $500 credit doesn't really bother me, assuming the credit was intended to offset the "hybrid premium," rather than to induce people to buy more efficient cars.

It's thinking like that that worries me about Bush's request that he be allowed to set economy standards for each weight class separately. It does nothing to push people to moving into a lower weight class.
