    I like it too. Because the SJ Mercury is from the Silicon Valley, those Auto reporters have gone out of the hybrid bashing... but don't want to be seen as a treehugger either. So the comedy route seems to lighten up the crowd from both side of the fence.

    A few of the SJ Mercury auto reporters have Prii. B)

    I'm not sure these guys drove the same cars I did. Not sure about the Accord, but when I put the Camry and Prius side-by-side, the Prius won out big time. It seemed roomier, and more fun altogether. The Camry's big weakness is that most of the trunk is taken up by the battery. The trunk on my '02 Civic is much more spaceous. :p
