The Cost of Thinking of Owning a Hybrid

We do a lot of traveling by car.  We love to drive.  We will soon need to upgrade an older SUV.  We are considering mileage in the equation.  Like they did in the 50's and 60's.  But that is another story, for nowadays we are much smarter and better.

So we settled on form factor- a crossover type SUV.  There is a nice one, the Ford Escape, or as I like to call it, the Exscape.  It comes in a hybrid version, as does Toyota's Highlander.  Now we will get into the cost analysis.  I am not going to lose money trying to assuage the guilt society tells me I should have about society's environmental disregard.  Lets see if I can break even.  Stay tuned for specifics.
