Y'all jealous much?

BTW, I have a dude up the road from me a ways with a camo paint job, big light bar and pillar lights on his prius.... and His front tires are always scalded off by late spring... he just loves trying to kill it.

Funny thread.

It is. Gotta expect it though, the Prius is pretty much the anti-Raptor.

Prius: small, cheap, invisible, quiet Raptor: big, expensive, flashy, noisy
Prius owners: Left-leaning tree-huggers Raptor owners: Right-leaning gun-huggers
Prius owners worship nature from afar Raptor owners go get dirty
Prius signals virtue to the hypocritical Raptor lifts a middle finger toward the hypocritical

And so on. I'm sure y'all can add to this list. And yes, I know that there are exceptions. All generalizations are wrong, after all. ;)

Edit: fumble finger

My truck is super sized, your Prius look like two fries.

My truck, more mass than the Earth
Your Prius, half staff, it needs work...


Oh I want to just quote the whole song haha

Reminds me of the Greaseman’s skit on the difference between sail boaters and power boaters.

I bought mine because I am a cheap ass motherf***er.

Having had the unfortunate displeasure of driving/riding in/servicing the Prius, I can say with confidence that no level of cheapness (IMO) can justify spending any significant amount of time in a vehicle that awful. Not only is the level of ugly is off the charts in both interior and exterior, but the ride quality and noise levels are appalling even for an economy car. it's slower than a Geo Meto running on 2 cylinders, and the center mounted gauges (used because it's cheaper than running a harness to the driver side) are cheap 1980's dot matrix displays. Never mind the fact that it's downright embarrassing to be seen in one.

This is the best thing that can happen to a Prius, courtesy of Earl Dibbles Jr:

Yeah that pretty much sums up the Prius owner demo. You left out extreme left-leaning hippie women in their 50s-60s who spend half their day at Trader Joe's.

I've never fit into one category but driving Seattle for work and commute the Prius drivers are the worst. I'm a left leaning Raptor driving land surveyor that likes strippers and BBQ.
