I'm with Eskrimast1 too,
Since you live in one of the states that demanded the longer hybrid component warranty, go for it. The CAT and EGR valve are the only other common trouble-spots that I remember reading about. Some of the manual-tranny versions had issues with premature hybrid battery failure, but the extra warranty period would neutralize that concern.
