"All the same, the fact that a vehicle of that size is getting comparable gas mileage to a Toyota Camry is pretty impressive."
Hahahaha! Are you really thick enought to believe what you just typed? This is a classic case of apples and oranges and situational facts.
Let's see now, how can we make your statement true?
"If a $25,000 V6 Camry, a darn fast car (even if not sporty), is driven aggressively ONLY in a stop and go city environment, it's possible that a $50,000 Hybrid Tahoe, a slow SUV, can get better mileage if driven with a light foot."
That's as close your statement will ever get to being true. Heck, it's possible for a Ferrari to get better mileage than a Mini Cooper if you really skew the results.
In the real world, ANY Camry will get *significantly* better mileage than a Tahoe Hybrid when driven the same in a real world mixed enviornment of city and highway driving.
