The Ford Escape Hybrid is already ridiculously priced, I can only imagine what this plug-in model will do for that. Maybe that's why they want to wait 3 years before they introduce it; by that time the batteries will be half the price, and they'll be able to sell it for a reasonable amount.

2012? Haven't these fools learned anything in the last 4 months? There's absolutely no reason these cars can't be on the damn showroom floor by this time next year. I would buy one tomorrow if I could and so would many others who are looking for half an excuse to get all teary-eyed and patriotic over the American auto industry but so far have found nothing worth Toby Keith-ing about.

If this is what they come out with in 2012 I will be sorely disappointed. The platform will be over ten years old by then.
