Default Re: Honda Accord Hybrid

[ QUOTE ]
Don't buy a hybrid now if you're doing it to save money on fuel. It'll take a decade plus for you to recoup the extra cost in fuel savings, especially if you're in poor position in price negotiations.

I think if I recoup 1/2 of the premium during a 4yr lease period, I will be happy with that(paying a couple grand more for an environmentally sound car). But it is true that people buying hybrids in So. Cali are in a poor price negotiation position, which may cause a lower recoupment %.
