Small non-hybrid with fuel efficiency? ... No. It can't be. Then why would anyone pay up and sweat the ownership of a non-standard hybrid car? LOL Yes, I was driving a Toyota Corolla before getting this 4Runner, and it was just fine. I got a sudden case of stupid last December, and it has taken me this long to get over it. I was getting 40+ mpg on trips and about 27 mpg in town. My only gripe was that it was really small in that driver's seat. I'm not a big man, just 206 & 6'1, but a long trip made my bones seize up. I figure a Camry's bigger, and a Camry Hybrid is just as good on gas. But, I'm still trying to decide. I know I want navigation, range and all the good stuff in a new ride that is trouble free for the next 10 to 20 years. ;^) Yeah, spreadsheets. At work I'm bad about opening to get some info, anticipating closing it right back, then making a needed update, answering the phone or talking to whoever walks up, the computer logs me out and I never save. Hours later, I log back in and close the file. Excel asks if I want to save, but it asks that almost all the time even if nothing was changed, so I screw up and throw away my update.
