It looks like New York City might be switching cabs from Crown Vics to Prii! http://www.cnn.com/2007/TECH/science/12/12/green.taxis.ap/index.html
Hmm, wierd, The new board would not allow me to reply to this, till I used the Quote button. Anyway! My comment - I think Ford really needs to make an aerodynamic luxury livery Van. This would sell a bunch of their Hybrid systems. Had a long talk with a limo driver who mentioned that Ford was doing a special Livery version of the Mariner hybrid. But, his work is mostly highway cruising in a semi-rural area to the airport. So the barn-door Escape platform might not really pay for itself.
