I drove a 2008 Malibu hybrid around Denver for 5 days during the DNC this year and man did the mileage suck.  Check out this picture taken from the dashboard of the car.  Yea, 18.6 MPG in hybrid-mode city driving.  That’s about the same as my 2001 gas-guzzling 8-cylinder Dodge Dakota truck.  Come on!  Hybrids doing < 20 MPG?  Give me a break!
