The Corolla hybrid is only $1500 more than the base model and gets 50MPG combined vs 35MPG. The break even for 15k miles/year is 2.5-4.3 years given the highest and lowest US prices as of today (California@$4.59, Texas@$2.70).

Not really. Toyota dealers are filth. The ones around here were trying to sell my neice one for $5000 over sticker as a “market adjustment”.

It’s better in other regions, but you couldn’t pay me to buy a Toyota.
