Hi /r/Frugal!
What is your opinion about the economic implications of purchasing a hybrid vehicle? I am considering a new Toyota SUV (I carry around a lot of people) and the price of the hybrid model is only slightly more than the regular one. It gets 10 mpg more in the city (same as regular on a highway) which sounds great, but I am worried about resale value. If say, 5 years from now I want to sell it, potential buyers may hesitate at the risk of having to replace the $6000 battery at some point. What is the smart thing to do with my money??? Thanks
