Truth be told. I think they all look unusual.

Function over form!
OR
If it don’t go; chrome it!

What does a Prius sound like when idleing?

They do NOT idle! If there is no call for additional power, you run on the battery.

I took mine to California and Florida and loved it. I have a bench with fold up middle console.

My ideal would be something like the image below.



Even as a replacement for those split bench or semi-buckets, it'd be an improvement. A place to put your stuff, easy way to slide across to get outside either door, or a good way for the missus to get cozy. (I'll tolerate the now mandated headrests).

At least a Prius is not as gay as a Subaru. You got that going for you.

Subarus are mainly homosexualist when women own them. The Volkswagen Cabriolet was the male homo car of choice.

“We” are four of us. And, yes, the Prius will carry the ought six, the four fifty eight and all ten Enfields and still seat us all.

Wait until the battery light comes on ... then your dealer will love you to the tume of 5K plus...

Toyota Prius, 10 years or 100,000 miles warranty on the hybrid system.

I hope that I'm still driving in 10 years!
Also Consumer Reports found

How well does the Toyota Prius hold up? Some people have expressed concern about how the Toyota Prius and its battery will hold up over time. Consumer Reports tested a second generation Prius with more than 200,000 ... still going strong!

70+ posts and no one has posted the UK TopGear episode where “Billy Bob” handles a Prius thats in his parking space by lighting it up with a Ma Deuce?

I’m disappointed.

Spinach quiche, please!

Lest I run out of daylight riding my bicycle.
Also any gain and I may need new spandex/lycra.
The helmet should be ok?

With a Rottweiler in the back, right?
