That is why I advocate going to Ebay or equivalent internet based markets. I bought my 03 Prius from Ft. Worth Texas and this weekend, someone from California took delivery of their hybrid-electic in Fairfax VA and started driving home.

My rule of thumb is let the local folks have a chance to 'do the right thing.' If they can't, no fault, no foul, but do the right thing anyway.

Personally, I think we should have locked Cafe standards to the average price of gas. It would be automatic and would have gotten GM off of the 'government tit.'
