It time to get out of the V game and do my part

Well, the gas mileage I've been getting with the V has been bugging me for awhile. Only getting around 15-16 mpg in the city is just not acceptable, especially considering the sheer number of cars on the road today. We've got to start thinking about the impact that this has to have on our environment. I really can't justify it to myself anymore. I guess the ol' angel on my shoulder has finally prevailed. :)
So anyway, I found a great deal on my new (to me) car. 2007 Prius with only 8,2XX miles. I pick her up today! I'm so excited. I'll be putting my current V up for sale in the classifieds today or tomorrow if anyone is interested. Anyway, since I'm sure you'll all want to see pics, here she is!



It's in great shape. I don't really want to post up the price I'm paying until everything is finalized, but let's just say that it's a steal. Well below book. What do you all think?

This is for sure an April Fools joke.
So did your angel say anything about what your gonna do with all those batteries when its time to change them???
lol, yeah, he got me with that one. BASTID!!!
I was fixing to say! Smug alert!
I call April FOOLS on the PRIUS AND the 15-16 city mpg!!!!
Or, you got a real gentle ***** foot . . . I am lucky to get 13 in the City!:hide:

Kids...this is why you don't do crack.
god you scared me man.. glad to see everyone is on board with the april fools

smug alert!!!!

BOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Actually, if you want to trade your V on an EV, just wait for the TESLA Model S. That will be my next car (hopefully!):shhh:
Prius = the Anti-V :nono:
Gotta be April Fools, but if not...there was a an article printed here awhile ago
how the Prius is really no better for the enviroment than a Hummer, something about where the batteries are produced or something along those lines.

hah, i bet 99% of the people that buy a prius could care less about how "environmentally friendly" it is... they just care that they get 50 MPG.

that's the only reason i'd ever buy a hybrid... strictly for gas mileage.

ALSO - that whole battery rumor. I know two people that drive hybrids, and one of them just replaced his batteries - after 4 years and 140,000 miles. You know how much it cost him? under $4,000! I can live with spending $4,000 every 140k miles when i'm getting 50MPG.

Also, the warranty covers the batteries for 10yr/100,000mile.

Still, i couldn't step down; i love the V too much :(
I subbed out my V for a Town Car.
Get a Vette. I got 31 m.p.g. coming home from the plant after it was built.
