    Synopsis: Some discussion about the new hybrid trucks from GMC (and how inefficient they are) and an interesting chart depicting the "Greenest" and "Meanest" cars on the road. Some surprises, like the regular old Civic being #1 in Greenness (?!) and the Hummer NOT being #1 in Meanness.

    It's not regular, it's COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS!

    Also, you can't trust anything on msn's website. They claim the most fuel efficient minivan is the 4 cylinder Chrysler at 26 MPG. The V6 powered Toyota Sienna gets 27 MPG.

    I don't know who the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy is, but I have to assume they're not affiliated with MSN, necessarily.
