Wow the only thing nice about that rear is the third brake light looks to be integrated in the truck lip.

Well, he also mentioned "direct port injection," which could be related to, simply, port injection (as honda does it now). But yeah, direct injection is exactly that, fuel injected directly into the cylinder, which allows for more control of fuel timing, mixture, etc (for the engine designers).

What's the guess on the hybrids MPG? Just seems that the usual premiums for the hybrids don't justify the gas savings.
