 So you're tired of seeing your money disappear into your fuel tank and you've made up your mind to buy a hybrid car. Not so fast. A varied array of hybrids -- from sports cars to pickup trucks to luxury models -- can be found to suit nearly every taste. To figure out which one is right for you, take a look at BusinessWeek.com's Hybrid Buying Guide.  First, compare prices, gas mileage, and estimated fuel costs for every available hybrid model. Next, take our quiz and test your HQ (Hybrid Quotient) to see how much you know about these energy saving vehicles. Once you've decided which one is right for you, print out our tip sheet, How to Buy a Hybrid, and take it along to your local dealership. For readers whose interest in fuel economy and conservation goes beyond the showroom, read our interview with David Friedman of the Union of Concerned Scientists, who spells out what governments, oil companies, and consumers can do to lessen the global addiction to oil.
