150 Miles per Gallon Hybrid!?
This is pretty cool. At the time I'm writing this, there have only been 300 views of this YouTube video talking about the next generation of Hybrid vehicles. I'll embed it here so you don't have to follow the link...
Pros: 150mpg, 40 mile electric-only range, very quiet, 87 mph
Cons: You have to plug it in every night, $9k premium to buy, 87 mph =)
I can't wait until they have these things running well and affordable. I've always been interested in alternative fuels and I'd love to have one, mainly for the fuel efficiency.
I'd love to have a more energy efficient home, too. Like if we could somehow hook up some wind- or solar-powered generators to our grid here and actually save some moolah. =) Yeah, that would be sweet.

I saw this and am actively crossing my fingers! Since moving to western oklahoma, we've racked up almost 3 times as many miles as we normally do!
Yeah, I'd love it, too. Once upon a time, I had a VW Rabbit (diesel) that got 50mpg and I thought that was amazing! I drove from PA to OK and back and spent only $40 on gas and snacks. =) And, hey, I'm not THAT old! That was back in the mid 90's.
I love that you guys are GREEN :) my hubby is looking in to the APTERA.com - lol, he'd get run off the road in OKC! Love your recent wedding pics...all the lovely details :)
Hey, Beth ~
That Aptera vehicle is cool! Looks futuristic like a wingless airplane.
I was immediately impressed with the photography on their site. I wonder who did it for them? It's great! =)
Hey, 0-60 in 10 seconds isn't bad. In Oklahoma, you might not get run off the road, but you'll certainly be stared at (like a calf looking at a new gate). =)
