Driving home tonight I saw a parked A/W ///M5 badged with a "hybrid" emblem on the left side of his trunk lid ! .........Now..That would be the ultimate antithesis/oxymoron !!!! Good on you whoever you are .......................Right about now Calton is probably wishing his was a hybrid !!

I have to admit that the jump from 14.5 mpg to 22 mpg has been nice.

But then again, I now listen to my radio a lot more instead of the sweet music of the V10.
