Starting at $19,800, even cheaper. These are mainstream prices, and they are only likely to get cheaper as they catch on. I think hybrids are here to stay.

Perhaps. You have swayed me to the possibility. The real test will be getting SUV's and trucks have workable options as well. Americans love larger cars and I think once Prius and Insight-esque versions of those come out that can compete pricewise, they'll cement themselves.

You're right, though, those prices are encouraging. I am now optimistic.
