Toyota Prius
Even though there are many hybrid cars on the road, the Toyota prius is taking up a large share of total sales. These gas/electric automobiles are being purchased, new and used, for more than the sticker price. With the gas prices rising with no end in sight, more people are willing to face sticker shock than gas pump shock.

I posted about hybrids a few times earlier this semester.
Once again for June though: hybrids don't pollute less. What they do is produce less pollution at the point of final use. The pollution is just created in a different location.
