    A PHEV Tacoma would be my ideal vehicle but Toyota will drag its feet as usual while the other mfgs innovate. That coming Ford PHEV looks good, as does this RamCharger. Series hybrid with ~140 mile range on battery, then tons of range on gas. Being series hybrid the gas engine is not mechanically connected to the powertrain but produces electricity to charge the batteries and drive the electric propulsion motors. If these PHEVs prove to be decently reliable I will be leaving Toyota in a couple of years. Hate to do it, but it is what it is.

    Yup, the sensationalism of MSN, a friend sent the link and I thought it a joke.
