Did you know that EZ-Pass grants a discount on commuter rates for people who drive a Toyota Prius hybrid?

I called EZ-Pass NY a few months ago to update my account. When they asked me what kind of car I had changed to, I told them it was a Mercury Mariner hybrid. They asked me to hold, and I waited a few minutes before they got back to me. Anyway, the lady on the other end of the phone told me that she had me hold because she heard me say hybrid, but the Mariner isn't on the list (neither is the Ford Escape, which is the same exact car).

I asked to speak to a supervisor, and I told him that it's atrocious that they'll discount a japanese car, but EZ Pass NY won't grant a discount for a "green" car that is American-made.
