Well, I just hope they don't emasculate the 2008 model by making it look like a cross between my grandma's min-van and my great grandma's station wagon, like I've seen in those purported concept vehicle images... gees, where's the fun in that? I guess I'm not a fan of this "look-n-feel" trend towards "metrosexual"-SUVs...

Interesting claim about switching to a 4-cylinder design. I just hope they can maintain 200+ HP and 30+ mpg... I know, greedy bastard, but isn't that what the HiHy is all about? Having your cake and eating it too?

I would be surprised if they simply abandoned the 6-cylinder HiHy models, but instead just offered a 4-cylinder version with much better FE and moderately better power compared to its non-hybrid 4-cylinder version...

I guess the ultimate have your cake and eat it too would be a button that allowed me to switch between 6 active cylinders versus 4 active cylinders. Then if I'm in fuel sippin' mode (namely, the weekdays) I can really kick butt on the FE, and then when I'm in kickin' butt mode (namely, the weekends), then I can kick butt on the power...
