Weir notes he gets about 20 mpg. "I live on a mountain, so the

without the benefit of a warm engine. So it doesn't get the gas
mileage going down the hill and coming up the hill. It's a big heavy
car."
Didn't know that about hybrids. Maybe they're better for long distance
commutes, although the GS450 is definitely not about fuel economy.
