Just kinda funny
I am sure the owners don't see any humor as yet.

I'm sure the lawyers won't find it quite as funny!
The mother will most likely upgrade to a Mercedes 350 at least.

Hybrids are against the laws of nature...

I could post pics of the 1900 Porsche-Lohner Mixte untill the sun sets, but would that be necessary?
What is really ironic is that Hybrid-bashing keeps being reposted despite knowing. |

Wow, 2 Priuseseseses with one downed tree? Never happen here in Houston. The tree would fall on 3 pick-up trucks. The rednecks would get out, cut it up, throw the wood into the backs of the pick-ups and take it home to use while smoking some wild hog that they'd killed. An hour later and the only indication that there'd been a problem would be a few leaves on the ground and the stump.

A misguided consciousness is a better sign than none at all(sigh)......
We live in a capitalistic democracy. If you don't like the ad, then change the channel. Don't want to buy the car, then drive another block. Everyone is free to buy the biggest heaviest guzzler they can afford for their daily commuting. Everyone is also free to deny the effects of pollution and environmental changes, which has been demonstrated ad-nauseum on this web site. Along with using such a vehicle comes the responsibility of paying the potential additional insurance costs from accidents, though. (FWIW, I find it quite fraudulant that SUV's are smogged as trucks, and insured as passenger cars.) Call it socialism, but don't complain when you're stuck between two 400lb'ers on a long flight. Can't have it both ways. |
