I haven't driven much yet, since the weather was quite miserable and rainy today - but the thing I'm noticing the most is how quiet the car is !! (I traded in a 1993 Nissan Sentra with 99700 miles on it).
It's comfortable to drive, I love the adjustable seat since I'm short, and plenty of places to plug in appliances !! Voice-operated computer for email, perhaps ??? (just kidding)
Since I do a lot of in-town, stop-start driving, I'll be very interested in the performance.
I'll contribute more as I drive the car.

Hi to all,
Thanks for the Welcome !! Does the Chicago group have a driver's club yet ? e.g. early breakfast on a Sunday at a good eating spot with lots of (free) parking ?
I wanted a Hybrid for the longest time, but other things kept coming first - know what I mean ?
Then my Nissan got towed twice - once in the snowstorm 2 weeks ago (dead alternator and battery) and once last week (dead starter) and I decided it was time to get off the fence.
I'm SO excited about the 2006 Hybrid !!! I really lucked out, since I called the dealer and they had one within a week !! Maybe someone else had it reserved and wanted a different color, or something.
More news as news rolls in....I'm just waiting for seat covers since I have a dog, Nini (American Eskimo) ....any suggestions ?
btw : I also have 4 cats , Cleo, Munchkin, Pretzel and Cookie

If anyone is interested in organizing things I might be interested in attending some kind of get-to-gether.
On another note. I think I saw my first 06' civic hybrid at lunch today. It was parked in someones driveway in DesPlains(sp?) and I saw it on the drive back from lunch. Anyone here own it?

We've already got Madison Hybrid Group and Milwaukee Hybrid Group .
How about Chicago Hybrid Group?
Then we can all get together for this summer for Midwest Hybridfest on July 22nd.
