Detroit Free Press: Hybrid owners debate real-world fuel savings

Frankly, I think that last guy really knows his stuff. He seems smart and handsome.
Though, when I wrote in, it was about how right now the biggest variable in a hybrids performance was the driver. I was contacted and asked to give some tips to good MPGs, and I essentially copied my post from the Escape forums that I wrote on how to get good MPGs. If you look or read them, most of what I wrote in answer to their question got cut, as did my original letter, but hey, I got something that I wrote published in the newspaper.

One thing the Prius does for me, is make me aware of drivig actions, where fuel is being wasted so, I think people that don't have hybrids would benefit from better gas milage by driving more efficiently.
