Since I was asked...
I drive a Civic, which I bought before hybrids were available. My next car will be a hybrid. The Civic gets good gas mileage, it can fit in one parking space (and leaves room for others to open their car doors), and people can see around me on the street.

I also walk, carpool and take public transportation. If I weren't such a klutz I'd ride my bike more often too.

If in the future I feel I need a larger vehicle that can haul my kids and get around in the snow, I will purchase a Subaru. It gets better gas mileage than Planet-Mobiles and doesn't cause all other drivers to move in the the shoulder.

But if you have a yellow one, you could pick up school kids. They look just like those short buses.

Trevor, not tell me about this kind of breed coming out now...
This is a relatively old species actually...
Really... How much do you think I can bench?
Anyway... It's a continuation of a locked contentious thread, thread.
Boy Trevor that's a mouthful.
Indeed it is...
It's sad to think that in some countries these threads are eaten.
