LOL. BTW, yes, I am still looking at hybrids. I'm a bit disappointed in my current car, though. YOu see, I'm one of those rare birds that doesn't sell a car until it dies irretrievably. My car is 12 years old and has 130K miles on it, but it just keeps going and going like the energy bunny. I just can't stand the thought of buying a new one as long as this oldie but goodie keeps working for me. So I thought I'd get a new car a couple years ago, but it's looking like this thing might run another 5 years trouble free. Oh well. :) Anyway, I was going to buy a Camry Hybrid, but those darn idiots at Toyota decided to focus on performance instead of boosting the gas mileage of the Camry. It's the same damn mistake that all the US hybrid makers made, which is why they have almost no market share of the Hybrid market. You would have thought that Toyota would have learned from its success with the Prius. IT'S THE GAS MILEAGE STUPID! I hope Toyota is reading this. Anyway, so the Camry hybrid is out for me now. It's going to most definitely be the Prius, as soon as my current vehicle dies.
