Thinking about selling my 1995 Volvo 850 (130,000 miles plus, 22-25 mpg) and getting a hybrid. Year ago I owned a Ford Taurus and would call it a mediocre experience--not a terrible car, but nothing special, mediocre heater, rattles, etc. Sold it at 50,000 miles. When I browse the threads, a lot of people seem to be having trouble with the FEH (the Prius threads don't seem to reflect this). Does anyone have the big picture on reliability? And BTW, how well does the heater work? I like the idea of the FEH, I think it could end up being a more comfortable car than the Prius, but the last thing I want is something I can't rely on.
