HL Limited vs. RX by 2003tls

Some clarifications:
 
Powerseat: You can get a power driver seat (not passenger seat) on the base Highlander. You get both a power driver and passenger seat on the Limited.
 
Wheels: HL has 16" wheels on the base, 17" on the Limited. RX has 17" on base, 18" optional. Prius owners complaining about the size of the wheel? Small wheels w/ narrow tires = higher fuel economy. You can't have everything. My guess is that they will stick with the 16" on the Hybrid.

Toyota already announce the HL hybrid will have 17" alloy wheels.

Just curious what the left gauge is for (100-200)? (Obviously, not rpm's!)

Maybe some Prius owners from the other boards can tell us if that left gauge is on their dashboards, too.

Maybe it has something to do with either the battery power left, or how much it is using at the time. It is a big gauge so it must be important.

Well, good speculation all...
 
Here is an attachment of an article in the Chicago Sun-Times. Apparently it is the battery life , as it replaces the tachometer.
 
Good article:

That is an electricity indicator, showing active transfer.
 
The charge-level indicator is on the Energy Monitor screen of the Multi-Display. Within the battery there, you'll see bars appear and disappear as well as change color.

Gas Price by maltbread

The price of $1.50 a gal. does not apply in the Bay Area and not in most of the developed world. Toyota develops cars for the WORLD not just the USA. Of course many people here (and that includes GM) think the USA = The World. Hence the World Series. The real price of gas should also include the cost of the wars to defend the supply. It also not simply whether the supply is there. Moving it around and burning it does not do us much good and neither does the huge imbalance in trade caused by inporting oil. Hybrids make sense for the good of the country but not possibly yet for an individual. One attraction for me is the range you can drive and the safety afforded by having more than one motor Toyota sells a hybrid minivan in Japan.
