Hybrid drivers beware

Okay, so it's not exactly my new Nissan hybrid. Which, by the way, got 550 miles on its first tank. I literally drove 3 weeks on 1 tank of gas - incredible. The overall MPG during the period was about 35...not bad!

So why should hybrids be afraid? Because the Tesla (I got to sit in this one at a recent fundraiser for Bing Nursery School at Stanford) and other zero-emissions vehicles are on the way. As long as they can figure out how to produce them in a relatively eco-friendly way, this is clearly the vehicle of the future.
