Don't break a hip falling off the soapbox in NY
 
Germany has a great law that I'd like to see put into effect here:

If you are in the left lane on an Autobahn, and you are hit in the arse, it's automatically your fault.

Not even close.

You've been hanging around forums too much.
 
We have had a Prius for years. This is the first I have seen or heard anything about any of this Prius hate or whatever.

It is just a car and I have never thought of it any different from other current cars or previous cars. Must be a medical term for our mental state after reading forums. haha.
 
11 pages of frick and frack and no Southpark mention? Are you all old or something? :ha

No kidding. I was wondering how long this would take. Very funny episode. If any of you ever drive in the Bay Area you'll understand why the episode is based in SF. The North Bay is crawling with Prius' (Priusi, Priuses, Priusene...what a frigging daft name), with 'crawling' being the operative word here.

I don't get it; I rented a Prius once and they can really zip along, and even with spirited urban driving I got over 45mpg. So why the hell so many Prius drivers motate like intestinal blockages is beyond me, especially since the cars deliver good fuel efficiency no matter how aggressively you drive.

I still have this insane desire to get a bunch of Priuses, have one with ROAD CAPTAIN emblazoned on the doors pull out and block a group HD ride, then proceed down the road in standard formation 10mph slower than the pirates want to go.

But I'm with you. My Prius gets up and scoots right along. Even at 80mph I still get mid-40s.

10MPH under a Pirate ride puts you in Battery-only mode..............
