CapeFish Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Its a hybrid right? 898004[/snapback] No, just a Toyota. That is a very nice car though. The price is well under 13k and it is loaded. Nice car choice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SongInTheAir Posted August 11, 2005 Author Share Posted August 11, 2005 How's visibility out the back window for you? 898080[/snapback] pretty good, when i have no one in the car i usually put the back seats down to make it a bit easier, but even with 3 people in the back, its pretty decent visibility. And to the other question earlier: its not a hybrid, but it gets 31/38 mpg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our current minivan is a 2003 Honda Odyssey built in Alabama. It replaced a 1999 Plymouth Grand Voyager built in Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll support American car companies any day of the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, the Ford Focus is one of the top selling cars in England and GM and Ford offer regional brands like Vauxhall, Rover, etc. to avoid paying those huge taxes.

Das Texan Posted August 13, 2005 Share Posted August 13, 2005 a bit feminine for a car, but not bad. and the only thing i like domestically is trucks and the mustang, but thats only cause i have always liked the mustang. the only 'foreign' truck in the same class as domestics are toyotas.
