[RFI] Hybrid Car RFI

[Roger (K8RI)]

My wife has a Prius and it creates no noise, BUT it has over 106,000 
mile on it so it's quite old and I doubt it's a good representation of 
the current production. BTW she just had the battery replaced at 104,000 
miles. She gets about 43 MPG, I get about 47 over the same roads.
