Almost every toyota is offered in hybrid now.
The Venza, Prius, and Sienna are only hybrid, while camry, rav4, corolla, highlander, avalon, and soon Tundra are optional hybrid. Only the taco and 4runner no option but soon with model changes will be hybrid options. Our complete line up will be hybrid optional in a few years and the talk is by 2030 all hybrid only
I’m a Toyota/Lexus fan. Have owned three Prius and Avalon Hybrid—all great vehicles. Added a Highlander to two the 210 FSH. Would have been a hybrid model if it had the towing capacity. May lose some sales unless they figure out how to improve hybrid’s tow capacity.

Mornin all

Had a great weekend in the pool & on the boat only to have a chity Monday morning. 5:20am we had someone run the stop sign, fly 42’, land in the yard still on the gas and crash into our barn 150’ away from the road. Destroyed most of the barn that’s attached to the shop. Ripped out the electric meter and wiring out of the generator and lord know whatever else is messed up. Just finally got power restored to the house and able to keep the electric fence hot & water to the cattle. Not how I wanted to start the week.

Wow! Sorry that happened to your barn.

Was the driver wasted, or they just thought their Pontiac was a race car?

Foggy and speed because they never let off the gas.

Would have been less disappointing if it was a DeLorean...

WOW! We had someone fly off a curve near one of our barns once and hit a stone wall at the end of the barn and flip over landing in front of the barn door.

Kinda foggy this morning. Only happens a few times a year because we're nearly the highest point for a few hundred miles in any direction. Wind usually never stops and pushes it away before sunrise.

This is the view from the back deck this morning.

I was recently interviewed by a local newspaper reporter about our Blueberry operation and how it has changed over the last 25 years. Here is what he got out of it. Been doing this a long time and we have seen the effects of climate change from a farmers point of view.
He could have taken better pictures or used some of mine.
