I kinda like the way some hybrids are more powerful than their conventional versions, but I question how fast you'd recoup the additional purchase price via gas savings

If our MPV got totaled tomorrow and I decided to *not* buy another minivan, I'd probably get a Suburban/Yukon. With the dogs I might have somewhat different space requirements, but the smaller SUVs I've looked at just didn't have the same interior room that a minivan has (much to my dismay). I really dislike how this sort of vehicle drives, but between the interior volume and the low step-up I just can't find a suitable replacement that I'd like better.
