I am considering replacing my '98 Plymouth Breeze in the next few months. I would prefer to buy a Toyota Prius, but the high price tag is a problem because I would never drive enough to justify the extra cost of buying a hybrid vehicle unless the price of gas goes up a lot. What I would really...

Yesterday I was 5th in line behind a vehicle traveling at speeds that varied from 35-50MPH in a 55 zone where traffic normally moves at 62-65. Oncoming traffic prevented me from passing the 5 in front of me and there was too little space to pick them off one by one. The vehicle immediately...
