Toyota's New Camry Hybrid to Get Four-Banger
Toyota won't be baited by Honda's V6-powered Hybrid Accord's horsepower challenge, at least as its 2006 Camry hybrid is concerned. The company is aiming to retain its fuel-conservation credibility (as dubious as it may be) -- while keeping down the hybrid price premimum -- by fitting its 2006 Camry hybrid with the same, 1.5-liter e-four as in the Prius. Its decision not to build a hotrodded hybrid, like the 255hp Accord, pleases our friends at Treehugger, who not surprisingly look askance (through wheatgrass-tinted lenses, o'course) at muscular hybrids that use their electric motors to add horsepower, not merely conserve fuel. One TH reader asks, "Why do people in the US need such powerful engines? Are you all carrying gold bullion under your seats?" Yes, Nigel, yes we are. And aren't you a dear for asking?

Good iPod car stereo adapter?
Why are the iPod adapters for broadcasting my iPod through a signal on the radio so crappy? Is it a law that the broadcasting signal can't be strong at all? And more importantly, does anyone have a recommendation for a good broadcaster for my iPod (For use in my car.) I've tried 3 and they all suck. They stick way off the iPod, turn on too easily by mistake while in storage (wears the battery down) or they are a PITA to use (too hard to configure or change the frequency while music is playing) and they ALL don't broadcast strong enough so there's always static, especially in the city or on a bridge. Help! Our new car only has a CD player so I can't use a tape adapter anymore.
