 This car exceeds expectations in almost every way.I live in Los Angeles, which presents perfect driving conditions for hybrid owners (the only benefit of LA's traffic).In my last two "trips", I got 42.5 mpg (on a 300 mile trip) and 45 mpg (most current).The handling is fantastic and the car, especially compared to other hybrids, has guts and great handling.The visibility/sight lines, as other reviewers have pointed out, are incredible.Even though I am over 6'3", I still have several inches of head room, the seat is relatively high (car is easy to get in/out of).There plenty of room for three adults in the second row.MyFord Touch is great after a period of acclimation.
