I am not 100% on the Ford's styling. Very chunky/butch.

the hybrid would also be ok, except for the fact that 90% of my driving now is highway, producing a net of 0 savings (gas) in the long run AND a $5000 set of batteries I have to replace in 5-10 years... (I was also looking at the Altima hybrid, and the extra $$ for no net savings on my commute....)

BTW, living in Hoboken makes it hard to throw a 300' long extension cord out your 4th floor window to charge your street-parked car halfway down the block!

(So all those plug-ins are still not feasable for me....)
