From this week's AutoWeek, demand for all hybrid cars is up in the U.S. In particular, an insight to the Insight: Also, some talk about Nissan's 2007 hybrid Altima.
Yeah, I've almost convinced my roomate to look into Ford's Highlander hybrid; he's just waiting to see what the price looks like. He does Tech Diving as a hobby, so long drives in an SUV are par for the course and a severe drain on the wallet. My father discussed same option with me couple months ago, but he needed a same-type replacement for his Outback ASAP and could not wait. So I sadly recommended he drop the Hybrid idea unless he can wait until next year.
Ummm... Ford Escape or Toyota Highlander? Unless there's been a hostile takeover that I'm unaware of.
Oops, just noticed. I meant the Escape Hybrid. The price is out now, so I'll warn him about it. --TSK
