California 2026 Fuel Prices

My wife's next car will be a Toyota Hybrid for sure, the technology is sound. Probably going with a Camry, not the dental dam Prius (Soup Kitchen). Not going full EV, I want to be able to do road trips as well. I did drive in an Uber Rivian the other day, the thing was bad ass.
 
Toyota Corolla Hybrid gets 47 MPG combined and starts at $25k, their Gas only version can be bought under $23k and gets 41 MPG HWY.

I don't think anything else gets that good MPG for that price point.

Any of the Toyota hybrids would be a good choice.

My friend has a Rivian SUV. It is really nice and stupid fast. No way I would do any road trip with an electric vehicle.

Corolla is slloooooooooooooooooooooooooooow though. I get it, these aren't rocket ships... But hol-eee-fawk is that thing slow, and it gets noticeably worse as the battery depletes.

This quote from Car and Driver pretty much sums it up...
The 2ZR-FXE 1.8-liter four tries its best to stay in the background, but accelerating at any rate higher than tepid requires rpm to meet CVT for an unholy battle in which there are no winners. The Corolla Hybrid begrudgingly dispatches the quarter-mile in 16.9 seconds at 80 mph.
Ayep. Keeping up in downtown Philly traffic with speeds under 50mph is difficult enough. Getting on the freeway...?

I had one as a rental (sedan version) and it was pretty easy to get mid-40s. Super comfortable and roomy.
 
Last night i had atleast 5 pull out to pass guy in front of them.Bad part was they saw me coming up single car no one behind and a 1/4 mile ahead they quickly start their pass and take about 3 miles to do so.And they werent on the rear of the truck in front of them either.
I hate that shit. I did that drive Friday to Havasu and Monday home. It happened two to three times each way.

I am pretty convinced that some do this for entertainment.Its not like theres a train of cars coming and the speed an approaching car has the truck can easily let the car by but nope they gotta shut the door instantly like pull put and then you see their turn signal come on.
