What is heavier? A ton of bricks or a ton of feathers? Neither!!! THEY ARE THE SAME.
Same goes with your Escort vs. Hybrid comparison... 31MPG on the Escort vs 31 MPG on the Hybrid is THE SAME. You still need one full gallon, burn one full gallon, and depend on OPEC for one full gallon to drive 31 miles in each car. How is the Hybrid any better?
