Yes I noticed that about Honda not wanting certain things to cross
over, such as the HID lights which would be great. Toyota Prius offers
them, but Honda Civic Hybrid doesn't, go figure??!

I think Honda is almost there as far as having total safety, but things
like Stability Control and Active Head Restraints and OnStar would be
the icing on the cake.
