Agreed. I'm a huge proponent of walking/biking, because it would also
help reduce America's health care costs, but if you knew my friend, you'd
know it'd be like talking to a wall to suggest that. BTW, he owns a
Prius and drives his 4 miles a day in it. That to me seems like a waste of
a good hybrid. Let someone who lives 50 miles from work buy the Prius.

I owned a '98 Metro and got 52-54 mpg, but after I moved closer to work, it
just didn't make sense to keep that car, so I sold it to a lady who has a 35 mile commute to work.
