DonM Just to commute in, which is maybe 1 day each week. Need two cars. At one time in Northern VA, Hybrids could use the HOV lanes, now we have Toll roads, and doesn't matter. The commute is 22 miles one way, so Prius gets the nod, plus easier to park--fits in more spaces and is older, don't care about the dings. Parking is another thing that has gotten harder, Amazon moved into Cyrstal City and reduced parking significantly.
