We could cut down on traffic if we pulled all of the Prius drivers out of their car, punched them and flung their car off the top of a mountain. That way there would be less traffic on the road. Just food for thought.

I hate prius's with a passion, I'm constantly getting stuck behind them on I-25 between Pueblo and Colorado Springs.

What i am reading is....We removed a bunch of cars from the HOV lane and now it slowed normal traffic.....sounds like that math problem that was posted that baffled most of facebook but makes complete logical sense.....

I wish I had a Prius, but I am poor so I have a Kia. A Prius can smoke me off the light. I have Prinus envy. :(

Camry 0-60 ~8sec, 16sec in the quarter
Prius 0-60 ~10sec, 16sec in the quarter

I would submit it's not the Prius that is slow, (well it is kind of, with a 10sec 0-60) but their granola eating tree hugging "I must drive in the most efficient mode" drivers. There's a fuel economy indicator in the Prius' dash, I'll bet their drivers don't know the use of the right pedal as in mash it to the floor when the light goes green.

I don't own it, it's my dad's car. I'll borrow it like once every other month, and when I do I'll run the battery out in five minutes trying to drive it like a real car.

:lol: ah this I did not know I retract my previous statement then.


Out of curiosity, just how fast can you make that thing go?

It's dead silent and automatic so sometimes on road trips I'll look down and will be going 100mph without noticing it, but it's restricted to under 120. Also it has those eco-shit tires that squeal with the slightest turns so around town I make a lot of noise. My average MPG is like 35... worthless vehicle if you aren't a sissy driver. The only fun I have with it is making ricers throw a tantrum (as they should) for getting passed by a Prius.

Prius' were designed to help save the planet from the gas-guzzling, small penis-justifying, over hp'ed heaps of manhood that some on here drive (like me...F250 7.3 TD). Why would any of you bash someone who is trying to undo what we've done (and keep on doing) to the planet? I, myself, don't have the discipline it takes to make a move like that, but I do appreciate the ones who do.

But, please carry on, so I can get my laughs in at the expense of the small-minded, socially defensive, conservative NObama, squids on here who only have a bike to be able to post their flagrant rants on everything that actually makes sense :-)

That describes me to a 't'. Only have a bike to rant and show off. Conservative. Squid. NObama. :roll:

I will agree with the small minded part but come on, to generalize like that is asking for a vebal assault from everyone on here. Not just the ones you professed to identify in your post.
