    Will the new hybrid Tundra qualify for the $7500 electric and hybrid vehicle tax credit? It certainly would make it more affordable!

    I know nothing... just looking into it.

    To be fair, the Tundra Hybrid isn't really made to get great gas mileage. It has a small battery that just assists at times, just like my Highlander Hybrid.

    Because for the average consumer, they can drive the RAV4 prime with batteries only and not use a sip of gas. You still have to use fossil fuels for the Prius.
