Amazingly worthless thread (the bickering) for a car enthusiasts site!

I don't see anything worthless in discussing ownership of a Prius on a forum for supposed car enthusiasts. I just said that in my situation, owning a Prius could save me a minimum $2000 a year cash in my pocket over an already economical low-emission diesel, far from worthless. The guys who want to shoot the technology down, based on zero experience other than seeing a guy parking a Prius one day, well that's their lookout.
I couldn't tell you what mpg my 911s do, or what the 4runners or Landcruiser diesels I run do to the gallon either, but mpg is what a Prius is all about and whether it is as good as they say is of interest to many of us. Especially guys like myself paying $9 per gallon of diesel!
