Interesting story....and that is what it is...a story

Has some good ideas.

Whether anyone is listening time will tell.

If I lived where we don't have a lot of snow and winter conditons

If I didn't work the afternoon shift that I didn't drive home when there hasn't been any plows on the road for hours.

If I didn't have to pull a trailer

I would be buying a Pirus car.

Until then I will drive my 4x4 small SUV in the winter and ride my FJR in the summer.

Edit: It will only be a short time before this thread is closed!

Prius' are ugly. I'd rather wait for a Smart Car.

Is this thread still open?

My wife drives a 06 Prius. Cool car.

I comute on the FJR. Cool bike.

I only drive my V8 F150 when I have to.

I changed most of my light bulbs.

(Although my plasma tv draws 390watts!)

We should all do what we should do if we can.

Prius politics is mostly about showing off, not curbing greenhouse gas emissions.

eh, not really for me, I got my 06 because it got a little better mileage when I was driving 100 miles a day and gas was over $3 a gallon and going up. Also the prius had been in production longer, so I would expect fewer issues with it. But mostly it seems to have alot more room than the civic. I also own an 02 civic, and the difference in cabin room is very noticeable to me.

Before this dies, I would posit that the vast majority of Prius owner's in the Wash DC area own them because they can use the HOV lanes.
