Watch out Bob. A friend has one. Works great in stop and go city traffic
where gas engines spend over half their lives idling at stop lights, but
otherwise it sucks.

This is a new 2004 model and it seems to have reasonable power on the highway.
I'll let you know about the MPG, but we drove it 80 miles last night and the
fuel meter barely moved. My Outback drinks gas by comparison. The STI is worse
unless you drive easy. Our friend's new Prius averages 45-50 MPG overall.
