You guys seen this article from CT State University -
The Toyota Prius is an eco disaster from construction to delivery to its less the true MPG.
When compared to the Hummer - the Hummer not only costs less overall, it lasts 3 times longer.
What this article doesn't even cover are what is going to happen with all of those batteries that will have to be disposed of when they lose their electrochemical properties.
So the poster-child for the "fiends in Frisco" (San Fran that is...) are all driving around with their Al Gore "Inconvienent Truth" smirks giving us Hummer owners the finger thinking they are driving around in their eco-friendly gas-sipper... maybe they should read-up on how they are driving the by-product of an eco-disaster.
Read up and enjoy -
