Car costs $650,000 IF YOU HAD BEEN ON THE LIST (cost to you and me from someone on the list is more like $1.5+ million)

There is a lot of talk about the auto manufacturers building hybrid cars for the future. One thing they fail to tell you is that when you eventually have to replace the battery packs, the cost is very high. Today, they are in the $3,000 range! Ouch.....not a DieHard!
