We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

"NOt bad as a putt-around vehicle, but as I said, useless to someone like me who pulls trailers and is off road frequently. The county I used to work for has 2 of them (Ford Escapes), bought with a "green" grant."


I don't see a hybrid as having the torque you're looking for, no.

"From a public safety standpoint, they are a whole different thing when in a bad crash. Ask a firefighter who has dealt with a hybrid involved in a crash/fire."

I will. I am curious about that.


"The Nissan hybrid sounds cool, though."


What was cool about it was that it was a prototype, and a "mule" at that. Very very weird car.
