The Super Duper Trooper Raygun by Robynn Sanders - RIP

The Super Duper Trooper Raygun in all its former glory.

I am sorry to announce the passing of The Super Duper Trooper Raygun a Toyota SUV created by Robynn Sanders who recently finished a painting a MINI Couper called Animated Robots. It seems that the Raygun had a close encounter of the wrong kind and is now headed to the "Yard" on its last and final mission.

Here is what Robynn had to say about her art car.

"The Super Duper Trooper Raygun is
Highly Mobile, Interplanetary, Multi-Functional, Search & Destroy, Deatomizing Super Duper Trooper Raygun


Designed to protect earthlings from evil invaders. Equipped with Electro-fizzilating Cosmic Clouding Bubbles that cleanse the world of dirty doing, also Dual-action bastardy deed Destroying Darts, High Intensity Multi-wavelength Cosmic Rays that de-atomize evil invaders and last but not least Hypersensitive Sound Blasters."

It was a cosmic and complex car, with many life saving properties and it will be missed.

Why People Love Hybrid SUVs?

Hybrid SUVs are becoming very fast one of the most popular vehicles on the road today. In fact, online searches for a SUV hybrid in 2008 and 2009 are among the highest for all hybrid cars. Hybrid SUVs are in high demand as consumers seek new fuel-efficiency options. The 2010 Hybrid SUVs are getting more powerful and better mileage than their conventional counterparts.

There are over 15 models available now and several new ones scheduled to reach auto dealers at the end of this year and in early 2010.

Hybrid Vehicle Gas Mileage Estimates (city/hwy)
(2008 & 2009 Hybrid SUV models)

34/30 mpg: 2008 Mazda Tribute (AWD)
34/30 mpg: 2009 Ford Escape (AWD)
34/30 mpg: 2009 Mercury Mariner (4WD)
27/32 mpg: 2008 Saturn Vue Green Line (2WD)
27/25 mpg: 2008 Toyota Highlander (AWD)
26/24 mpg: 2008 Lexus 400h (AWD)
21/22 mpg: 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe (2WD)
20/20 mpg: 2009 GMC Yukon (4WD)
20/21 mpg: 2009 Cadillac Escalade

Hybrid SUVs combine the interior space and ride quality of an SUV with fuel-saving capabilities of hybrid cars. Some environmentalists have criticized the hybrid SUV as a misapplication of gas-electric technology. It's true that hybrid SUVs do not reach the level of fuel efficiency of smaller hybrids in terms of miles-per-gallon. Yet, miles-per-gallon is a non-linear and counter-intuitive form of measurement. An apparently small jump in fuel efficiency-for example, from 14 to 16 mpg-saves as much oil as increasing fuel economy from 35 to 50 mpg, according to the Union of Concerned Scientists.
