Prius does more environmental damage than a Hummer

I'm so glad all those earth loving, herd following douche canoe hippies ran out and bought there fancy little POS hybrids and started preaching to the world about how environmentally conscious they are. LMFAO.

Thats when u roll some coal and show her what real exhaust smells like. I can't believe some people would actually make a incident from this. Now i can see the lady geting this pissed if you had 4 12" subs rattling her car haha

Nice link Chase.

I would have moved my truck in that situation.





All the way over to about 3" from her driver side doors, and then just rolled up my windows and turned up the radio.

I'm not a "tree hugging, bunny Humper" However I have a Prius, what may seem like a Cardinal sin to some, I see as a fiscal savings.

All I'm getting at is don't assume all Prius owners are like this. I hate driving any car but when I can travel 1000's of miles for cheap, it's hard not to appreciate. That said, I want a TDI VW next.

I worked out in Texas for about a week, me and two guys I work with, our company rented us a tiny little car I cant remember what it was but all I remember is I was in the back and looked over to see the bumper of an F350 in the next lane sitting level with my head at a red light!! How are these little cars safe! When we got home I bought my F250 two days later, now people look over and see under my truck.... I wonder how that makes them feel?!
Off topic a little.... How cant people see these trucks!!!! I get cut off almost once a week because people didnt see me!!!! Someone ran into the rear passanger door on my truck last week!!!!!!! The truck is almost 8 FEET TALL!!!!
EDIT: I forgot to say.... I wasnt even in the truck it was parked when it got hit!!!!!!!!!

Did I mention that even though I have the car, it is not my daily driver? The truck is. Although it is roomier than other small cars, such as the GF's corolla and my Matrix. I hate driving them all, and still choose to drive the truck

That story was debunked years ago.
