After 20+ years of owning mini-vans, Betsy and Tod Tobin of Delmar decided it was time to downsize.
Their four kids are grown and the only items going in their backseat and trunk are their golf clubs and suitcases! In the 10-minute video below, Betsy discusses why buying a hybrid car felt like the right thing to do for the environment - and their wallet - since they won't be fueling up quite as often.
Betsy shows all the great features of the car in the video, including the roominess, keyless entry, storage areas, gas mileage, cost, and more.
If you live in the Town of Bethlehem and own a hybrid car, we want to hear from you by leaving a comment below. Or, if you own a different hybrid model, email us and we'll shoot a video of your car.
Hi,
I looked into the Prius, but it was not comfortable for me, and I found the controls confusing.
I LOVE my Civic Hybrid. Last summer, I averaged about 45 mpg, driving maybe 2/3 of the time on the highway. Over the winter, with 4 snow tires and heavier rims, it averaged about 40-41 mpg.
I'm not sure I want a video taken, but I want to remind people that Toyota does not have the only high-mileage green sedan.
