@Sharp_Coyote: Took a while sry, but that's the way it is with vehicles. Ford Escapes aren't bad. I've never driven one, but I've never heard complaints. You thinking of getting a Hybrid? Nothing but Toyotas in my life and a 64' Impala SS (sold) T-T.

I am not 'Murrican.

I will (likely) never own a hybrid car, as I believe they are a poor stopgap measure; a small, efficient gasoline car will outperform most of them in most criteria.

@vex714:
Full-electric cars are also a no-go because of our crappy battery technology, lack of charging infrastructure, and the huge environmental impact of both manufacturing and disposing of said crappy batteries.

@vex714:
Not to mention the huge environmental impact of having to generate more and more electricity to power electric vehicles.
