Ferrari Mailing List: Re: NFC: Any hybrid daily drivers out there?

[Britt2Asa (Britt2Asa]

Hi Tom,
 
Lighten up. Fuel here is now 10.00 dollars per gallon. I filled up the 400i  
yesterday and it cost me 253.00 dollars (no I am not making this up!!!) You 
have  cheap fuel. You have cheap fuel. I drove 370 Ferrari miles in the last 24 
hours  burning fuel happily.
have a nice day.

Any  hybrid daily drivers out there on the F-list?  I'm seriously thinking of 
 getting a hybrid of some sort.  Not that it will make any immediate  
economic sense (buying a hybrid to "save" money on gasoline expenses) but I'm  
just 
really getting pissed (in the American sense of the word, although, Britt  and 
Francis, if you're out there, I did have a drink tonight and sorta plan on  
having another one) at the high gasoline prices.  I paid $3.599 per  gallon 
yesterday or the day before, and about 6 or 7 days prior to that gas  was 
"only" 
$3.299 per gallon.  9.1% price increase in less than 1  week?!?!  Yikes!  
That's what, 473.2% per year?  
You gotta  be kidding me.
Thanks to all,
Tom (about to have one more drink "for  medicinal purposes") Reynolds
