Has anyone found any listings on where experienced hybrid mechanics are, throughout the country?

I have not seen a compilation. The staff at Claremont (CA) Toyota are very good, in my opinion. Art's Automotive in Berkeley (CA) has a great website:

and I have had some interesting email discussions with their staff. I would be happy to let them touch my car.

From time to time we read of maintenance horror stories. Perhaps your question will get us started on compiling a useful list.
