That makes ... oh, a few million of us. But don't despair, there is good news. And in this case, good news comes in a small, green package (often the best kind). Inhabitat.com alerted us to Toyota's lastest unveil, the FT-CH, a compact, more affordable hybrid that is expected to get about 60 mpg.
According to Inhabitat, the car is a full two feet shorter than its big brother, the Prius. It is lighter, nimbler and more fuel-efficient, making it great for city driving. Toyota has not begun production yet, but has hinted that the car will be priced lower than the Prius and part of a new "Prius family" of cars.
Just don't ask us how you're supposed to pronounce it. "Eff-tee-cee-aitch?" Perhaps "eff-tee-chuh?" or maybe "futch?"
How about "Fetch" as in "What a fetchingly cute car?"
