Anyone here have a Hybrid Honda Civic?
Can you tell me if you like it, and if you would recommend it to someone else?

Thanks.

1. We bought one in April and without a doubt - YES.
It has better visibility than the Prius, we average 45mpg going 75-80 mph, it's quiet, has an ipod jack and has a great interior. It's also less expensive than the Prius.

It also feels like driving a space ship. :P

2. Cool
it has an iPod jack, that is something I could not find on the website.

is it one of the latest ones, or a generation earlier?

3. It's an '07... but we got the model without the GPS.
You'll need to get an attachment for the ipod jack (which is an auxillary jack for the sound system, actually). My husband commutes fifty miles one way every day to work, and he loves it.

I would prefer a model generation older, simply to save money but am not against a new one. Your endorsement makes me feel better about it though.

Thanks.

I think this one would be nice:

HONDA CIVIC HYBRID

Or maybe even this one for a bit more savings, but I have no idea what special problems they may have as they age.
