    Do hybrids last as long as naturally aspirated engine and do they make sense?

    My registration is 70 bucks a year but it won’t need a renewal this year as new vehicles don’t need renewal until the second year and every year after. My full coverage insurance through USAA with commercial umbrella is about 100 bucks a month. LITTLE OVER 200 for two vehicles. ( 2023 Corolla...

    I am still completely thrilled with my 2023 cc hybrid. I filled up this morning part way to work so the mileage is for the tank. The reading is confirmed accurate if a little conservative. Hit 15 k this weekend. My true average is 45-47mpg on my 92 mule round trip
