I just read and watched something on a 100 MPG plugin hybrid Prius, I have one question. They say that it runs the first 100 miles, on batteries and moptor alone. My question is, How can they say total 100 MPG, if the fuel engine is not running the first 100 miles? If this is true, then while not a lie, its a misrepresentation of the facts. I'm not down playing the technology, Just need a clarification on how the milage needs to be represented.

For those who are complaining about15.8 MPG, I drive a 1999 Dodge dakota w/a 5.2 V8 and it gets 13.8 at best in the city and 17 avaerage on the highway. As soon as i can swing it, I want a newer more efficient smaller car, thinking right now about a PT cruiser
