I don't see many hybrid vehicles in the DR, but all the major car companies have had them for several years, and in the states there's not a "huge" premium" on their sticker price. Are they widely available in the DR...anyone have personal experience with them...prices/problems with maintenance, repair, etc? Also, is there a huge difference with maintenance/repair for gas vs. diesel? Also, if there's anyone who's had experience with all or some of the following, any recommendations/warnings/comparisonson the following Jeepetas:

Toyota Prado/4Runner/Highlander/Rav4 vs.
Honda Pilot/CRV vs.
Nissan Pathfinder/Xterra/Murano/X-Trail

I know there are major differences in the group, but any kind of fair comparisons would be helpful. Also, any major changes in the model years from 2000 on up would be helpful as well...
