you can get a prius with navigation, leather, jbl 6disc, smart key, backup camera, hid lights, fog lights, side airbags, etc... for under 30k... that alone is a pretty good value based on other cars with the same equipment, and the fact that it has the highest resale value of any car in america adds even more value to the car.

I'm not seeing a huge premium price difference between them and any other cars on the market....

on top of that mining and manufacturing in general always has negative effects on the environment, whether its nickel or any other mined and refined material...

I wonder what the dead spot would look like over the golden triangle in southeast texas, which is the largest concentrated industrial area in the country....

There's wildlife all around that area... its amazing that the mining of nickel is such a harsh thing... never knew that...

as far as the epa estimates, toyota is telling me they don't know what that's all about and I have alot of customers that are actually getting 50+ mpg on avg in their prii, so I don't know why they would change that estimate...

maybe Central Atlantic Toyota just hasn't gotten the memo yet, though....
