Gas Mileage

I'm trying not to complain too much about these gas prices, but of course I'm concerned and angry (I guess that's the right word?) that I have to pay more at the pump every time I fill up. But I try to also say that this is a good thing, because without these high prices to motivate others to come up with alternatives to old dead dinosaurs, we'll never move on.
But I found this article today that was interesting about how the car companies come up with their MPG. I was amazed at the amount of differences! I can see how they could never get it perfect, but 46-50% error?! Wow.
I'll have to keep this in mind when it comes time to buy my hybrid :)
