non-hybrid suv beats up on hybrids

the 2010 chevy equinox looks like it will be beating the fuel economy of the Toyota RAV-4, Honda CR-V, and even the Ford Escape Hybrid at 32 MPG highway. i will admit i haven't been the biggest supporter of american automobiles in the past, but this is pretty impressive and the actual car body doesn't look like shit. much better than shit, actually.

i hope this is a taste of what's to come in detroit and other american automakers. if it is, i may even become a convert.
