Oooh, I sent him an e-mail. I hope my Prius (also) ownership doesn't disqualify me (I promised not to talk about the Prius, only the FEH, though that *will* be difficult! ). Will keep you posted. |

4) How big is the purse holder?
5) Does it have lighted mirrors (to put makeup on while we drive)?
6) What color are the seats?......

The magazine targets women. That may explain things.

Re: Be Interviewed! Magazine looking for Female Non-Toyota Hybrid Owner
I wonder why they specified "non-Toyota hybrid."

Non-Toyota driving women, at that!
By excluding Toyota, they're missing out on the HiHy female drivers... not all Toyota hybrids are Priuses, after all.

Re: Be Interviewed! Magazine looking for Female Non-Toyota Hybrid Owner
Thank you for reminding me exactly why I do not read women's magazines (I'm female.) On a related note, I was at the "women's doctor" yesterday (oh, shush!) and I had to chuckle when two much-hipper-than-me women complained to one another that "There's nothing good to read here." "Oh, there never is!" Meanwhile, I read five Texas Parks & Wildlife magazines, one issue of Audubon Magazine and one photography magazine (yeah, it was a LONG wait!)

Re: Be Interviewed! Magazine looking for Female Non-Toyota Hybrid Owner
Maybe they already had the Toyota hybrid owner slots filled - not excluded?
