Honda mini van, he said that the dash on that has so many electronics in it's dash for the digital speedometer and the other read outs that it's far worse then any of the hybrids, but still pretty safe to drive unless you are sensitive to that kind of thing, but most of all, avoid the use of the security system while you are sitting in the drivers seat.
I LOL'd.
