I found this FEH at a local dealer site and I see it has a large LCD in the panel..
Does that LCD display FE information or is it just for the entertainment & Cellphone usage?

I've driven the 08 and it had the basic FE info display, sorta like an SG2..
That LCD looks neat, but is it useful?

That FEH almost looks like it's missing the finish panel, but it's just the picture. But anyway, the navigation option does have FE and Hybrid info. regrettably, they still think people can only get 60MPG and now they think they can only go 699 miles on a tank...

Thanks for the picture Carl. After thinking about it for a while last night,
I figured it must be a NAV screen, but the Information screen is Nice!!

I like the idea of a bit larger 2009 ICE and using lower RPMs on the highway.
Plus, I've heard that a light foot can work wonders with these little trucks.

699 MPTank sounds great to me..
What kind of mixed highway-city range do you think an 09 can do per tank??
