#1 of 3 Gas Cost (Hybrid vs non Hybrid) Calculator by houmi

This is a neat calculator I found online...
 
unless you're very conscious about carbon foot print (that's a very good thing), don't bother to go to the site.
 
But if cost is your #1, it tells you when you get even. You just input miles driven every month, cost of gas, gas mileage, and cost of the cars (usually $5k difference)
 
The things it does not take into consideration: the costs to fix your hybrid car (I assume it's more but less over the years as Lexus figures things out, etc)
 
Have fun.

Most people buying Lexus hybrid don't care. If cost is your #1 issue go buy a kia or huyndai.

This is for RX350 vs RX400h/RX450h .... not Kia or Hyundai. $5k definitely can get you more options in the RX350, if cost is your #1 issue.
 
Anyways, I am hoping to get a 2010 RX350 by end of the month....
