saturation bombing us here on the west coast

with Ford hybrid ads. In Canada there are two market areas for the release of the Escape. Vancouver and Toronto, Ontario. In the last week and a half I've seen a Escape ad at least every four hours on TV. And I've seen a Toyota add that shows a Prius along with the entire lineup. And today in the local news paper there is an ad for a 2k2 Classic and in the local free paper the downtown Toyota dealer is advertising a lease cancel and they have 2k4's for immediate sale. Drove by my local dealer and he has a 2k4 in the new car lot. So they are starting to show up.

I was on a roadtrip this week, and saw two 04's on a dealer's lot in the interior of BC.

I have no idea how difficult it would be to import one to the US, but there are some available right this second if people are desperate enough

And Canadians drive on the same side of the road as we do, so why not go to Canada to get one? Canada is a more civlized place than the US anyway.

Then instead of importing a Prius to the U.S., we should move to Canada and drive there I hear they have a very open immigration policy.
