Here is where hybrids are going to plummet in price...
when there off the manufacture battery warrantee (Toyota is 100k) and people start buying them and having to replace the battery packs.. thats when your going to see unhappy unsuspecting owners that end up buying a 10k used hybrid and then have to invest another 5k into replacement batteries..
These thinks are going to get a bad rap quickly when these things start to head into the 7+ year range.. and people get burned by a battery replacement.
