So apparently my registration is going to be a lot more expensive this year

I have to pay $100 more for owning a hybrid. Some bullshit about how they increased the gas tax and this is how they make sure hybrid owners pay their fair share. 

I'm sure we can trust our politicians to make sure 100% of these extra fees will go directly towards improving the roads though. I can't wait to see how much better the roads look after this and I'm sure they will with all the pay increases for those involved in passing the law.

They're doing that in Illinois too.  Vehicle registrations are going up across the board too.  Trade-ins over $10K are getting heavily taxed.  All the money from lottery ticket sales that was supposed to be earmarked for schools is going to cover public union pensions.  Now the FBI is getting involved with Chicago Aldermen & State Politicians...who suddenly decide to retire a few days after the Feds show up.

don't worry your money is going to your senator's 3rd mistress so it's for a good cause!

I don't know about hybrids, but I know any unfortunate soul who owns a Tesla has to pay a bunch of fines and jump through too many hoops just to keep it here.

there's a ton of people in this area who own one. idk how, the amount of money and paperwork you have to go through, the seeming lack of places to service it, would not be worth it. i'd probably own a hybrid before i bought an electric car as my primary vehicle.
