Prius VS Hummer

[Beau]

I'm sorry but believing that the CNW report is true just supports the stereotype that you have a to be a complete moron to buy a Hummer and help kill the earth.

A REAL research institute looked at the CNW report and published this http://www.pacinst.org/topics/integr...r_vs_prius.pdf

The biggest point that this report mentions is the lack of proof of the Prius' life span. When I looked at a Prius last year and even went to far as to put money down on one, what stuck out the most was this very thing. I asked the dealership outright about the life expectancy of the battery, etc. and they indicated that 10 years was what the battery was expected to last. No mention of miles, just the timeframe. I asked them about the cost, and they indicated to me that a majority of the cost of the vehicle is in the batteries. Now I'm not entirely certain if that is true -- I'd take it with a grain of salt -- but this is coming from a Toyota dealership directly. I would think that if the average family bought a Prius and after 10 years the battery finally died and they were looking at even half the cost of the vehicle for a new battery, I think that for most, that would effectively be the end of the life cycle for that car. Just my two cents is all.

You are truly a genius! My guess is that you are indeed the first to rationalize that. Give yourself a pat on the back...you deserve it!
