How about this?  It has been announced that you will soon be able to purchase kits to convert your car into an electrical hybrid.  You could save a bundle that way.

Plug-In Required?

Another common myth is that all hybrids need to be plugged in. Well this is true of the original electrical hybrid vehicles.  Now there are electrical hybrids that have a battery on board that is charged as you drive. So you are still gaining the advantage of saving on the cost of gas, without the problem of having to plug your car into an electrical outlet every few hours.

The good news is that research is still on going to create an even better version of this tecnology, which would combine the best of both worlds. A electrical hybrid that would run on the plug in power for the first part of the trip and then switch over to the charged battery power for the rest.

Imagine only having to fill your gas tank once or twice a month just to provide the power to get your car started!
