Oooh, I sent him an e-mail. I hope my Prius (also) ownership doesn't disqualify me (I promised not to talk about the Prius, only the FEH, though that *will* be difficult! ). Will keep you posted.

I was upset about being excluded for being male but think about the questions the magazine is going to be asking:

1) What color is your hybrid?

2) Oooh that sounds lovely, do they offer it in pink?

3) Is it offered in an automatic (none of us at the magazine can drive a stick)?

4) How big is the purse holder?

5) Does it have lighted mirrors (to put makeup on while we drive)?

6) What color are the seats?......

The magazine targets women. That may explain things.

I wonder why they specified "non-Toyota hybrid."

Non-Toyota driving women, at that!

By excluding Toyota, they're missing out on the HiHy female drivers... not all Toyota hybrids are Priuses, after all.

Thank you for reminding me exactly why I do not read women's magazines (I'm female.) On a related note, I was at the "women's doctor" yesterday (oh, shush!) and I had to chuckle when two much-hipper-than-me women complained to one another that "There's nothing good to read here." "Oh, there never is!" Meanwhile, I read five Texas Parks & Wildlife magazines, one issue of Audubon Magazine and one photography magazine (yeah, it was a LONG wait!)

Maybe they already had the Toyota hybrid owner slots filled - not excluded?
