And, Al Gore's son was driving. Oh, and he had some drugs with him. Let's get back to this whole Prius breaking 65 mph on the highway. There's your story! (AAS)
I have a theory that the reason Gore Jr. had and was using all those drugs was so he could cope with the shame of being seen driving the Prius. Then he puroposely ran it at 100mph so he would be arrested, have his liscense revoked, and thus end the humilation of every having to drive that fucking joke of a car ever again.
I'm all for the alternative fuels, but let's be honest; that car looks like Fido's ass.
When I first test-drove my Prius, after watching An Inconvenient Truth for the second time, I didn't intend to buy. I fully expected it to be some sort of anemic 4-banger econo-box. It couldn't be further from the truth.
A Prius will most definitely burn rubber, and is quite capable of quick acceleration due to the fact that it has both an electric motor and a gasoline engine, both of which contribute power during acceleration.
The Prius is roomy, luxurious, fast, and a joy to drive.
