An IntelliChoice.com survey finds that most 2009 US hybrid and clean diesel cars, trucks and SUVs deliver a lower total cost of ownership compared to gasoline versions of the same (or comparable) vehicles. The point we make is that it is not just about fuel. Buyers also need to consider costs such as maintenance and resale value.
