Hybrid car hype on MSNBC

Just caught the end of a hybrid car segment on MSNBC. An editor from one of the top auto mags was being interviewed about Toyota Prius resale value, and hybrid cars in general. The gist was this, hybrid cars are solid, proven technology and reliability shouldn't be an issue. However, as the hybrid battery pack nears the end of its warranty, replacement costs could be an issue, but that's an issue that only time will tell.
