I guess that explains why I do not see drivers cut us off and slam on the brakes like I remember, we moved from California! Jedi, I think that your modifications look great, I am just kind of surprised that the guy knew that you used lawn edging. There are many arguments against purchasing a Prius, although I am not saying that they are necessarily true. I do not see the same mileage as others on here with my Civic, but I can probably compete with some Prius drivers, except they drive eighty, while I maintain 55, except my Civic cost half as much as a Prius would have.

If someone told me to purchase a Prius I would start complaining about all of the additional metals that need to be mined and then how long do the batteries last, how much does it cost to replace them, and what happens to hundreds of pounds of toxic batteries?

Of course, I know the answers to all of those questions and would absolutely purchase a Prius if I could!

I love rolling into an intersection right after a light turned green and passing cars that raced to a stop just a few seconds before!

There is no greater feeling

Just don't understand why so many people drive like brainless idiots??? You would think it was their last day on earth. (OK, maybe they just have to go to the bathroom )
