How many times can you take the behind the wheel test in one year?
Any Hybrid is just a "feel good" car. It's really not going to do anything positive toward the energy crisis or toward your saving any money. You'll NEVER recoup the cost difference between a hybrid or a regular car. Plus, the batteries will need replacing in a few years..that will cost 3-6 thousand dollars, plus you have the problem of old battery disposal.'94 Acura Integra Rs VS '95 Nissan 240SX S14 Coupe?
Just buy a vehicle that gets relatively decent mileage to start with. A Honda Accord, or better yet...a Civic would be great. A Ford Focus or Fusion get great mileage, and you can get a deal on em.
don know
go for it if u need to haul bulky stuff.
if u drive on highways more i would get a hybrid car
As previously mentioned, it'll take you around 8 years of ownership, to recoupe the initial step up cost of rolling into a Hybrid. GM and Nissan supposedly are trying to bring the price down, where it's just as afforable as their 4 cylinder engined versions.

So other than "feeling" good, that's about it. Plus we don't know what the long term issues with reliability, and replacing the battery pack in 8 years, will do to the vehicles depreciation.
If you truely want to save money on fuel, maybe a regular 4cylinder passenger car might be a better alternative, instead of an SUV?
Headlights:how can I make them as annoyingly bright as possible?
Also, the Highlander is towards the end of it's life cycle, a new one should be in line in the next year or 2. Actually it's sort of dated compared to the competition. I'm surprised Toyota has let it languish this far. Maybe a fresh offering might be better, so you dont have that "driving the old generation" look right after buying it.
