^^Chevy's in the same boat with the Sierras.

I'm amazed at the number of full size pickups being sold.

Prius also seems to have gone mainstream. I think the latest generation actually having some styling sense (well, compared to the previous two generations of Prii) has helped out a lot. The interior looks like it was cribbed from ST:TNG.

If I only had a couple mile commute that was city driving I would likely have a prius. But they are just a tad too small/light for my comfort for a daily commuter on an interstate especially in the winter time.
