And that was the one thing that kept me from buying a Hybrid. Seriously. Most of my driving (90-95% of it) is city driving and a hybrid would have probably yielded HUGE gas savings for me. Of course, trailering is right out, then. :lol:

I don't have a garage and winter temps routinely dip below -30C before windchill here in North Bay. In those conditions, year after year... hybrid FAIL. :(
Daily driver 1: 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport "S"

33" BFG Mud-Terrain KM2s, lots of Rough Country gear - bumper, 2.5" lift, swaybar disconnects, Superwinch 10,000lb winch, Detroit Locker in rear D44 axle, custom exhaust, K+N filtercharger, Superchips-tuned.

Daily driver 2: 2006 Subaru Legacy GT

COBB Stage 1+ package - AccessPort tuner, COBB intake and airbox. Stage 2 coming shortly - COBB 3" AT stainless DP and race cat, custom 3" Magnaflow-based exhaust and Stage 2 COBB tune.
