ALBEMARLE COUNTY, VA — Albemarle County officials unveiled the county’s newest vehicles — two white Ford Escape hybrids. The sport/utility vehicles will be used for county business, mostly for those who need four-wheel-drive to visit construction sites or navigate dangerous weather. Rising gas prices and an opportunity to be an environmental model to the community were the main forces behind the county’s decision to purchase the fuel-efficient vehicles. The county also plans to add two Toyota Priuses to its nine-car fleet within six months.
