Bob, I'm disappointed. You didn't even catch that I misspelled "much" in the second paragraph.

dcb, that picture scares me more than anything I've ever seen on the road. I know it's got to be legal somewhere and I know there was an engineer or two involved in its design and production, but that's scary as hell. And no, vinny, it ain't legal in the UK: The Maximum towed weight, including the trailer and it’s load must not exceed 150 Kg (330 lb) or two thirds of the motorcycles kerbside weight, whichever is the least.

Thymeclock- I see Bob as a little defensive at worst. An unapologetic fan amid what he feels is an unfriendly crowd. I've only known four Prius owners, and they've all been simply thrilled to own a car like that. I just see it as a vehicle whose main selling point is not burning much gas.
