lol. i like how they waste no time in reporting you. ... that must be common place for them to get bashed by people. i wonder if any one other then cummins people laugh at them. i bet all the charger/ 300c hemi's with the MDS, all the Corvettes w/ 28mpg, and other such fun cars laugh at them too. maybe they'll all just cry themselves to sleep one nite.

The prius doesnt even get that great of mileage. I have an 89 Dodge Colt that gets 42 mpg on the freeway doing 80mph. Cruising around town I get like 35, and thats not even driving it nice, I'm floored most of the time trying to keep up with traffic. This sucks I got banned, I cant get on and look at this stuff.

I read an article once, that I wish I would have saved, about the total costs with everything figured in, environmental etc, comparing a prius and a hummer H2. Long story short the prius was way worse on the environment because of the disposal cost of the battery those little cars have. I just love people who are "green" because it is cool. I get almost 20 mpg with an 7500 lb truck and can actually fit in it comfortably and tow or haul . People make me mad

read the one that i posted. its compared to a hummer. i wish people would see the potentail of possibly driving a TDi or a small diesel car. i read an article recently saying that when compared head 2 head with a bmw 520D. the prius got worse mileage, not to mention i promise the styling/comfort of a bmw is far better then a POS, i mean Prius

holy crap. i just realized i forgot to say this this morning. i'm house sitting for the owner of the company i work for, and that means i get to car pool in the company car with some other people. (of course company car is a Prius) :cry coming from first hand experience. the prius sucks. unless your going down hill the on board comp. shows about 25 - 30 mpg. the leather is nice, but the seats were built for horse jockey's or little girls. not for a 6'2 man. its terrible. i was in the backseat and had my head cocked to the side and it still hit the cieling . not to mention my arse was taking up my side plus half the center section. thank god this is only til wednesday@!!!

thanx smokinthehippies I knew someone on here would have that article. I also wish this country would wake up and realize diesels are much more efficient along with less maintenance among other things. thats why my wife will soon have a jetta TDI or a Cheroke diesel if she wants an SUV.

There was a news report from the phoenix area recently that stated that it would take about 4 years for a Prius owner to benefit or make it worth it financially from the cost of buying one because of the mark up on the stock price. It was like an additional 4 thousand dollars. You would have to keep one of those cars for about 10 years before you would be saving some serious $ assuming you 100% finance one verses a conventional engine.
