Out of interest are you on stock exhaust?

Nice story

Thats why I'm about to start selling FAKE solar panels. Why not.

Slap 20 of my panels on your roof and show you really care about the environment!

Same damn thing in my neck of the woods. Give me the Golf TDI over the Prius.

This sounds like science fiction. You mean to tell me that a Prius driver politely pulled over to allow someone to pass.

All kidding aside last month I had my sixth Prius pull over for me. Not what I would consider polite or a good record over ten years. The Prius driver to me is the new Volvo driver. Rude and inconsiderate. I have had Prius drivers tell me that by slowing me down they are saving the planet. 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 had something similar happen to me a few months back. I was on the highway in the right lane and a woman in a Prius was in the center lane. I was probably closing at ~15 mph and she was going fairly slow... as I got closer, she starts to pull over into my lane so I can't get over... forcing me to slow down. I move over to the center lane and she does as well, so I slowly move to the left and of course she moves over as well. So I drop it to 3rd and make a quick lane change and pull on by to the right.

Stupid lady. If she was really concerned about the environment she'd have left me continue since the Z is pretty efficient at highway speed. She effectively caused me to kill more of the environment. What a bitch.

Left-lane Bandits are the cause of more extra gasoline burned than any other group.

The Prius should come with a baseball card rubber banded to the brake caliper.

Cunnos · 10-01-2010, 06:52 PM

I hate every person who drives a Prius. They are almost as bad a BMW drivers. They act like they are better than anyone else on the road and I swear, every time i see one i feel like they try and piss me off....."oooh look at me in my ugly car saving the earth, oooh im better than everyone else"---sweet go drive off a cliff
