Default "Motor" on hybrid maintenance

Hi,

I just came across "Motor" magazine from the Firestone waiting area:

http://www.motor.com/

It is frame/Java driven but following the 'magazine' link you can get to the May 2007 article titled,"10 Hybrid Services You Can Perform Today." It was a reasonable attempt to explain hybrid maintenance to non-hybrid technicians. Not perfect, it had this gem:

Quote:
". . . Not surprisingly, most hybrid drivers are focused on fuel economy. Many have their own preferences as to tire inflation, so make sure you discuss this before lowering any overinflated tires back to the manufacturer's specs. . . ."
A nice read.
