Why are the streets always flooded with this aweful car(pics)

No, seriously, does anyone feel the same way about these priuiui?

Because lord knows i hate them with a passion, even with their bloated price tag and when other cars with similar characteristics when manufactured like a prius can make the same mileage. Themselves and their pilots 90% of the time are nuisances on the road

Queue up the G-Wiz please!

(OH and believe you me, in Boston, don't think its a freak accident to see 2 prius side by side, sometimes they travel in herds of 3 or more at a time withing a given mile, no lie)

I don't mind them. I like to see technological advancements, even if it doesn't help the environment. I do however dislike the dodge calibers, think they are very ugly, even uglier than the Pontiac Aztecs.

The only problem I have with the Prius is their ridiculously slow drivers

Yeah that is true, the prius did get alot of people thinking more environmentally, whereas the insite did not and neither did the older prius. The annoying models that everyone drives did.

But yeah since were on the subject of ugly production vehicles...... Buick Rendezvous..... ickkkk

yeah like the Envoy is any better

the Prius is for those smug liberals to show the world
'I am doing something for the environment, why aren't you ?'

in all their smugness, they don't realize that overall, they are doing
more overall harm and earth-materials-rape than if they'd have instead gotten a Yaris or other small car

The styling of the new 2010 model is great. One of the better looking cars out there dare I say.

My stepfather owns one, I cant say he is slow, hell he drives insanely fast! And I like it (not so much the form of it) but the economic feature, plus in that time (2005) the price was not that bad. And he saves a bunch of money in gas!

You obviously don't know Californian Prius owners, now do you?

They smash on the freeway, doing 80mph+....what good that does for the $20k+ they spent on the car and the not so efficient use of the vehicle.....
Plus I get cut of by a large percentage of them doing 70mph on the freeway~~

Yaris on the other hand.....drive 75mph+ and still manage 300 miles to a tank!
