I only brake-check with my truck. I don't want to take the chance of some idiot injuring my "pony".

On my dream car: "My name is Allie Moore Prius and my batteries are full." (Where "Allie Moore Prius" is written to emphasize the capitals - "AMP".) Below it, it will say something like "500 MPG".

I'll also have a cartoon of a knight (Allie Moore) thrusting a sword (LiFePO4) through a dragon (OPEC) on the front page of the design documents that I will always keep in the glove compartment if anyone ever asks questions. (And to make an Aggie reference, Allie would be yelling "BTHO OPEC!")

Allie Moore is just my best friend. She thinks it would be cool to have a car named after her.
