    Once again, it proves that competition is good for consumers.

    The Insight's rule at the top of the heap didn't last long, one month. Honda should cut their price (to put pressure on Prius)...

    That's a combined sale of GenII and GenIII Prius, correct?

    No need as long as both have enough demand to get an acceptable return on investment. Like the old joke about the man complaining about losing money on every deal. When asked how he stayed in business, he answered "volume." That pretty well describes the GM model and it worked so well for them.
