Well I'm not a tree hugger but I do own a prius as my roundtrip commute to and from work is 220 miles. I set my cruise control at around 80 mph and I get about 43 mpg. This is a lot better than my Suburban which just kills me on gas.
On the other hand I know how you feel because when I'm in the HOV/carpool lane the car that is usually traveling slower than regular traffic is a Prius...and it is usually around the Berkeley CA area.
I'm gonna purchase a new SPF as soon as I figure out what color I want. I can't wait.

I'm still driving the c6 as my daily driver but it's not my ancient ass that's bothering me. It's my fookin knees that are killing me.

I meant "ancient ass" generically...actually refers to the entire body of pain. The right knee from twisting the size 13s enough not to ride the brake, the small of the back, the ass itself, etc.

Actually a damn good car...25mpg on the road, never faltered, fun as hell.

Wes...that's about what my wife figures: Groceries and nursery runs with the Expedition...the Prius for everything else.
