How many of you already own a hybrid vehicle ?

[Landric]

At present my wife and I share a RAV4 Hybrid. It is a great vehicle, overall average is about 40 MPG (same as the EPA Estimate). It drives well, has a lot of space, and is fun to drive (for a small SUV). My assigned vehicle at work (which I take home, the reason we get by with one car right now) is a 2021 Camry LE 2.5. It has an average of 34 MPG over the 26,000 miles I have put on it so far. All the Camrys we bought this year are hybrids, I am sure they are off the charts in the MPG department considering how well my gas Camry is doing.

I actually ordered a 2023 Maverick hybrid when the banks opened, then I changed it to a XLT Tremor. I don't drive that much so gas mileage isn't a huge concern. When it is, I'll take the RAV4 anyway. I decided I would rather have AWD than a hybrid. If there was a AWD hybrid Maverick I would have stuck with that, no reason not to save on gas. I am hoping I can replace the Tremor in a couple of years with a plug in hybrid or all electric AWD Maverick.

Although the Maverick is currently my only hybrid vehicle, I've been driving hybrids for years - the Maverick is my fifth hybrid vehicle.
I have driven two separate first generation 5-spd Honda insights, a first generation Chevy Volt and a second generation Volt that I traded in when I bought the Maverick.

My daughter has had 2 Escape Hybrids and now drives a C-Max... all 3 have been trouble free. That was a major factor in ordering a Maverick Hybrid sight unseen.

Bought a used 2014 Fusion plug in hybrid in 2017. Traded it for a new Escape hybrid Titanium in 2020. For the 30k miles I have on it I'm averaging 41.7 mpg. Hybrid Maverick is just a hybrid Escape with a bed

As long as I draw breath, there will NEVER be a hybrid or any flavor of EV in my garage or my driveway.

How's that lawn doing?

Currently have a Rav4 Prime in the driveway. That vehicle is what drove me to trade in my truck on the Mav.

While electric vehicles are the future, hybrids are still more practical than pure electrics in my opinion.

The Maverick will be our first hybrid (if we ever get it — ordered a Lariat hybrid the second day orders were open). We have a full EV (2016 Kia Soul EV) and a Mazda 3. The Maverick will replace the Mazda.

I had been wanting a small pickup for some time, but not at 20-ish mpg when the Mazda has averaged 32 over its 106K miles.
