Hi Everyone. As for Toyota hybrid vehicles sticking to the EPA fuel economy numbers, thank you guys/girls for the feedback. And it seems the SUV hybrids are even more locked in for numbers than the smaller ... but I will offer two counters:

This guy has had this hybrid RAV4 for a few years and regularly gets ~40 during warmer months when in town: Gah... can't post video links yet as a new member.

This new owner got 41MPG with mixed driving and 51MPG on his return:

I agree about not buying a new car if it is the first in a redesign, but that Dynamic Force Toyota engine... 40% efficiency is damn sexy to pump the MPG up so far! But perhaps I am putting too much trust in Toyota.... their GEN3 Prius are oil burners afterall.
