This is going to read and sound unpleasant but anyhow here goes. I have not posted in Pchat for long long time. I am not sure if my computer is tweakin a little or this forum website has issues. I not be able to search the forums the screen just flash 4 sec on forum main body threads . I got here only by recent posts search. Next I do not want to sound like a hater but P chat forums has lost any curious edge for me to come in here much any more. Hope the launch of the next gen prius is better than theses past few years for toyota at least. To take a line from a automotive critic "whats the big freaking deal about hybrids 39mpg I just do not get it"
One of the things that automotive enthusiasts and critics don't get about Priuses is that there's nothing to 'get' They're not terribly exiting cars. The steering is numb, the interior is pretty spartan for a $25,000 hatch, and the performance isn't exactly exhilarating. It's an ordinary car that provides extraordinary economy and longevity. If you're a hypermiler, you can get extra-extraordinary economy. So.....if you're one of those "it's just a car" people, then the Prius might just be just the car for you. If you have to wipe slobber off of your chin after watching a muscle car destroy about $800 worth or tires? Probably not so much. That's why some car people get 39MPG in a car that's capable of easily delivering 49. Priuses probably aren't their thing. They should be...... (get a muscle car to play with on the weekend!) Good Luck! .
sorry you've lost interest, but i'm sure you have more profitable things to do with your time. i enjoy being of help when i can, and hanging with the peeps. to each his own, we'll miss you ntsp!
