      <![CDATA[The owner of a Prius or other hybrid will only purchase about 115 gallons/yr LESS of gasoline than the owner of a similar sized non-hybrid.<br>
<br>
So that $100/yr fee equals about 87 cents/gallon tax. Pretty steep and completely out of line with gasoline taxes.<br>
<br>
The REAL culprits here are 18 wheel trucks.

      <![CDATA[I actually bought the bit by the Governor about the tax being fair since hybrid owners pay less gas tax and therefore carry less of a burden for the cost of transportation infrastructure. But finding out that the original plan was to do away with the gas tax altogether but to add the $100 alternative fuel fee anyway makes that claim dubious.
