    Here is a new article that was done last year right after I bought my wagon. I was literally approached in a parking lot by a very cute News girl. How could I resist but to brag about my wagon. They didn't use much but it's there. Click on the watch Video link.

    Ha, I was riding around in a prius the other day! My buddy's aunt and uncle own one and frankly, it gets better milage than I do, so we took it instead of my car. Lemmie tell ya, they are NOT fat guy friendly!! I'm 6'1 and 250 lbs and was crammed in this car!! If you need fuel economy be my guest, but I prefer my comfort and style, and them Prius-es are ugly little things!

    Wow! I have never driven one or any hybrid for that matter, so I never really gave much thought to 'em. Just thought they were pretty much a fugly little soapbox on wheels that scams consumers into thinking they are saving money on gas. Of course in reality you would need to drive one on average for 10 years to brake even on the added cost of a hybrid versus a non-hybrid which happens to be right around the time the battery goes out on those things. And they ain't cheap to replace!
