Ah, I love seeing this list. So many awesome projects to look back on and bug people to see if there are any updates! :)

Fingie 12-14-2016 05:21 PM

I am honestly glad this forum has still it's fair share of user activity, even now when fuel is cheaper (In the U.S at least, ;) )

A very clear winner, with nine time the views of second place!

MetroMPG 12-15-2016 11:34 AM

Good catch!

What's also interesting is the number of views here (90k) vs. the number at PriusChat, where Bill is also keeping a thread going (99k). Comparable number of views, but the Prius crowd is nearly 2x as chatty (~700 replies)!

Yeah I noticed that we get real popular when gas goes over $3 a gallon.

As said, nice reminders here. And incentive to see what interests others.

OPEC is cutting back so prices will rise. I expect a balancing act: if crude prices get high enough a bunch of fracking wells may come back online which will hurt countries selling to us.

NoD~ 12-19-2016 12:11 PM

Wow, didn't realize how popular my little Insight (Frogger) project has been! :) Definitely a motivator to do more next year...

(starting when it's no longer cold outside... lol)

Stubby79 12-27-2016 04:41 AM

:eek:

I made the list!
