Dwight, I went out and tested a Prius also this afternoon. It is rated at 48 city 44 highway. Plus the seats fold down and there is lots of space compared to the small trunk in the Civic. It drove just as well but the one I looked at was about $26,000. The Honda was $22,343 including a $1,000 discount, Internet only special, since I first contacted them online. Yes, I've read some articles in Consumer Reports how the real world mileage is not quite to par with the listed EPA's. on the Hybrids. I'd really like a Hybrid Cadilac Escalade like Tom Brady got for being MPV in the Superbowl.
