Yeah, don't get too excited about hybrids. The NJ State legislature is
already talking about putting GPS trackers into ALL cars registered in the
state and charging by the miles driven as a supposed substitute to the
revenue stream currently derived from gasoline taxes. They consider hybrid
cars a growing threat to that revenue. Right. Time to establish dual
residency in a less blue neighboring state if that happens. They get
nothing then, at least no until they think of another confiscation method.
