Why don't you apply for a Fleet number and see if we could purchase, at a discount?, through Troy Danny? |

Troy becomes our fleet guy and we have PHEV's drop-shipped all over the country. Toyota would certainly sell a bunch of them! |

![]() ![]() This thing is absolutely begging for an HSD IMHO. Its whole point is that its smaller, more efficient, more fun to drive than a full sized minivan. Since Ford is already licensing the HSD for the Escape, why not get it in the 5 too! I think they'd have a real hit on their hands if they could get this into the mid 30s. In its current form its right in there with the Escape and Camry non-hybrids as far as weight and MPGs, so it seems feasible. Rob | |
