Chevy Tahoe: A Very big car

[Update: This car's a Tahoe, not a Malibu, as I thought it was called. Both headline and post have been updated to reflect the correct name of the car :P ]

Thanks to GM, I and some fellow BlogHers get a free ride up to San Francisco for the BlogHer conference. GM's lending us a Chevy Tahoe -- free of charge -- along with a full tank of gas and free parking.

Said Chevy Tahoe's taking up half my block at the moment.

Yep, the Tahoe's a hybrid, but a humongo one -- meaning it gets only 22 mpg.

Considering how expensive gas is these days, does anyone know how many miles a full tank of gas in a Chevy Tahoe will get us?

Don't worry -- I'm carpooling -- though now that I have a real sense of how big the Tahoe is and how low its mpg is, I'm thinking I really shoulda worked harder on getting more people to ride up with us --

I'm hoping we can scrounge up more people to ride down with us Sunday morning. Lemme know if you're coming back to LA post-conference!

Oops! I mean the Tahoe. GM had said they were delivering a Malibu originally, and I have no idea what either car looks like, so I just assumed the car that showed up was a Malibu :P Will update the post :)
