Hybrid Car Dealerships

Question for owners of Accord Hybrid (or former owners) only.?
Has been a reliable car? B / C is a hybrid is a need to take to dealership for all maintenance? In your opinion, do you think it was worth the extra money? Finally, if someone buys a used can still get the tax cut?
we had one when they came out .. just switch to a larger vehicle. excellent car .. I totally recommend Honda:)
