Given the high mpg of the Fusion and the Milan, people are noticing just how well these cars perform and are responding accordingly. Once gas prices top $3/gallon again, which I believe will happen soon, demand for the Toyota Prius, Honda Insight and other hybrids will boom. Expect prices to tighten as consumers go after the "green" stuff. Tundra, I would say that pent up demand plays a factor.

The Ford hybrids use the same Power Split Device hybrid drive systems as the Toyota hybrids, and it is an excellent drive system. Kudos to Ford and Toyota for recognizing the advantages of the PSD system and putting it in their cars. I’m not surprised that the Ford hybrids are selling so well.

It was an investment indeed, but I know we'll be very happy when gas prices exceed the $5 a gallon level. Marketing hybrids is another reason for Ford's strong bottom line.
