I am 6' and have about 5" to the roof in my Camry. I would think that the new design of the Camry just might fit you as well as an Altima. The Hybrids are up here in the GWN but the cost is about even with a fully loaded V6 version of either car. I followed an Altima hybrid the other day down the highway, it looked good in black.
The hybrid truck still doesn't achieve the fuel mileage of any car yet but it is better than any truck, much like the hybrid Escape. The Escape gets great mileage for a samll SUV but only as good as some V6 sedans, however it pollutes much less, thus gets a green award.
