IBTG81 Posted June 16, 2006 Author Share Posted June 16, 2006 Yeah, lack of a small wallet. Probably best not to put someone down who owns a car worth more than everything you own. 709395[/snapback] It's just a showoff car. You couldn't pay me to buy a Chevy. Now, if we're talking a McClaren, or a Lamborghini, that's one thing. But a friggan 'vette? BTW, Thailog is pushing what, 40? I'll get back to you when I'm out of college for more than 5 years.

I'm sure with your haughty degree from Rutgers you'll one day be driving such a high dollar vehicle. Ah, ideology - a tool of the young and foolish.

IDBillzFan Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I was thinking 1) It's really cool technology, which appeals to the uber-techno-geek in me, 2) It drives rather well, with surprisingly good handling and power (it's not a Vette, obviously...but for a hybrid it's pretty good. More than enough for regular driving.) 3) It's surprisingly roomy. My 6'4" frame fits very comfortably, and with the front seat down, I can carry 8 foot pieces of 5/4 mahogany easily. 4) It's a well-made Japanese car, not an American union-bulit "I get $40/hr to tighten a bolt, and I can't even manage that without !@#$ing it up" piece of sh--. 5) It cut my monthly gas bill from $180 to $60. 709255[/snapback] Not mentioned, but worth mentioning, is the fact that (in California, at least), you can drive the Prius in the carpool lane regardless of how many people are in your car. That, in and of itself, is a major selling tool out here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
