Article 1
With gas prices being out of the roof in the summer I decided to look at an article with hybrid cars vs. normal cars. This article relates to my parents because they have a commute of 70 miles. That is about 350 miles a week if they commute together, and you can't forget to add on trip to the store and other places. I chose this article because I wanted to see if hybrids actually saves you money. The article says that a hybrid car will save you $565 a year in gas. But the article also says that the high price of the car will not save you money until you reach 100,000 miles. Also, hybrids have higher maintenece fees. After reading that article I realized that hybrid cars do not save you money
Article 2
Like most people in the summer I get hot during the night, and when the fan cannot keep you cool I can't sleep. So I looked at an article about a fan that goes under your top cover and over the bottom cover. It is a lot cheaper to run than the a/c and uses less electricity. It is only $90 and is a very quit machine. I think the bedfan would be right for me because it saves electricity, keeps me cool, and runs quitely.

I liked that you decided to read a little more about hybrids. You are probably right - you might not actually see the savings for a few years into owning a hybrid. Maybe in a couple years - they will cost less and not be so expensive to maintain.
