I find it funny how people who drive "regular" cars try to make jokes about hybrids being pussy cars. Im in the market for ine for a commuter. Its as douchy as every corvette driver thinking your car is a pussy car.

The Honda Fit doesn't give quite the ride of either car however I think its much more value for the money spent.

why do they both look like vagina lips

Insight Sucks my balls trust me. I got rid of my 2011 after 4 months. I feel sorry for any sap that gets stuck with the junky lemon piece of shit. For fuck sake its ac does not even work properly. What a waste.

I would rather buy the Honda Insight

and then Dynamat the car.

Now it is much quieter

Seriusly, havent you thought about the difference between Quality and Customer Service when you compare Toyota and Honda? Toyota is well known around the world, they care about their customers. The americans false complained about many vehicles and even if they didnt find anything wrong, Toyota recalled over 100 000 vehicles..

You do realize Top Gear US did a mileage contest driving the entire length of the I-5 southbound with a Prius vs. a Corvette Zo6 and the Z06 had BETTER fuel economy. The Prius was huffing and puffing on the highway. The Z06 was cruising barely breathing.

Environmental Pollution rates:

To Build, Maintain and Drive a hybrid to 25 000 km/yr damages the planet FAR MORE than the average 3.5L V6 will driving 35 000 km/yr in it's lifetime.

That's proven. Go look it up.

And you are preaching what you don't practice, obviously, or you would know that.

Even a Prius can do 60 mpg with the right parts. Most fools preach hybrids, but don't realize they can do even better.

So yea you go believe whatever you want. I live on a ranch 100 miles from Edmonton on my private land. I have the room to open up a V8 like that.

Yes. I bought my Charger RT Road and Track for ego.

Obviously someone who can't afford a performance car doesn't understand the point of it.

Oil reserves? You high bro? In Canada we have more off the coast than the middle east ever had plus a good amount in the prairies.

That mpg is City and Highway. 28 on the highway and 26 in the city.

It's called getting good parts like air intakes, good oil, good o2 sensors, etc that gets you good fuel economy.

Would you please remind me how we got from talking about fuel-efficient cars to life and death ?
