Going green

Well, we just made the leap to a hybrid.

  

I know what you're thinking...will they fit in that tiny car?  And surprisingly, the answer is yes!

Yep, I even let the dogs in it.  After all, they are my babies too!

 

Look at Cane looking out the lower back window!

Both Bella and Cane can keep a eye on Hadley for me.

 

And the gas mileage...well, I took a quick trip across town last night.  On my way back, there wasn't much traffic out so I took a little time to experiment driving the hybrid.  

By taking it a little (but not that much) slower than I normally would drive and being able to drive so that I was only using the battery during some of the trip, I was able to get over 85mpg for that quick trip!  Isn't that crazy? Now, that's not going to be the norm of course.  It will average out around 50mpg but it was fun to see how much and how far I could go on just battery power. Go Green! :)
