Out of curiosity...

I am interested in environmentalism. I use Seventh Generation and Method laundry products so I am reducing dependence on oil-- they use plant based oils. I recycle, can foods grown locally, and donate clothes and household items to a local thrift shop.

Why can't I buy a hybrid minivan? I love my Honda Odyssey, and it gets decent gas mileage. But think of what it could do with a hybrid engine!

The kicker is that the hybrid minivan exists. It's been sold in Japan since 2001.

What's the deal?

I'm with you Kath - Christian and I have been whining about this for years. And I've always thought those that go for minivans over SUVs are very likely to buy the hybrids.
