Ten minutes a day, $90 a month.

State Limits Hybrids in Fast Lanes - Yahoo! News: "The state says only three hybrids — the Honda Civic, Honda Insight and Toyota Prius — will be allowed."

The article mentions twice that people may not use the solo carpool ability when selecting a new gas-efficient vehicle. It will be our biggest factor.

She spends 1.7 hours on the daily commute, and our monthly gas budget is $300 ($115 for my 12.8mpg Tahoe and $185 for her 80 miles/day.) So our next car will allow us time-efficiency as we drive solo in the carpool, and her mpg will double, mine will quadruple!

Behold the power of democracy to effect social and environmental change. Even at glacier-like speeds.
