Thanks, both of you. We are clearly all enthusiasts of hybrids in principle and
I think Toyotas in practice, but I need to amortize this car over many many years so cannot afford to make a mistake.

The Highliner gets superb reviews but it's so BIG. Fine for a country estate; tricky in city traffic, city parking.

But I'm Canadjun,eh, and we kinda like smaller cars.

Although I keep seeing Hummers here. I call them Bully Trucks. Would love to see a psycho-analysis of the people who like to drive them.
