They're not fooling anyone with those ugly "eco" cars. The carbon footprint of the Prius factory, the strip mines needed for the parts/batteries/electric engine, the chemicals, the run off, and not to mention the plastics FROM OIL that gives them the plush interior to act like a snob from is FAR WORSE than if they had just bought a 10 year old Civic.

If they really cared about the planet they should have bought a used car. Instead, they buy a status symbol so they'd have a reason to act like jerks.

We found a Prius in our way to ZdayZ 2010.

It was funny because even that we were doing almost the speed limit he was trying to keep up with us didn't matter what.

You see the deer was not afraid of the Prius because she perceived it to be a timid woodland creature. Safe. Cuddly. Not going to eat her. The deer is obviously not an honors student among species, and knows nothing about how her relatives have been killed or forced out of their environment so nickel could be mined for the rain-forest friendly Prius.

The deer, however, was afraid of the Z, because the Z is a predator. The deer took one look (or listen) of the Z and knew someone (thing) was going to have to be the biotch in this scenario. So she likely ran off to a safe distance to watch the Z make the Prius crawl on the floor with the mail in its mouth like Maggie Gyllenhaal in "the secretary".

Moral of the story: Deer lives. Prius goes home with tail between its legs. Maggie Gyllenhaal goes home with the guy in the Z. Just like Darwin said.

Just feel sorry for the the lame eco-libs because they will never know the thrill of driving a real car.
Nice story!

I'm getting 26 mpg in my new turbodiesel GL350 Blue-Tec! Sticker only said 22mpg but I'm finding that is very conservative. We went on a freeway trip and it was at 30mpg (according to the gauges, 65mph.) I'm happy about that. (Still miss my Z.)

It was more like I didn't really wait long enough for the guy to take his foot off the brake and step on the gas.

You should see their faces when I tell them, "Every time somebody like them deliberately will not pull over, I go home and put a piece of coal in the fireplace. When it's cold I burn it. So if you want to prevent this just let me by." I do not think it works but maybe someday...
I always tell my friend who has a Prius, "Whenever a Prius is next to me at a red light I like to rev my engine so it can hear me hurting the environment."

Wow... that was all kinds of awesomeness.

All day I kept thinking of this scene...

Why do Prius's hate me so much?!? I just came home after a 16hr day to a Prius in my parking spot in our gated garage. :gtfo2:
