Car Forum / Subaru Cars / December 2006What's your opinion on Toyota prius?
A friend bought Toyota prius. >A friend bought Toyota prius. She's baaaaack! Is this not the same shitstain broad that pestered this group this summer when she had a million questions about a Subaru wagon? Bet she wrecked that one and now thinking of a Prius.If it IS the same broad..she should take the bus.......gagged. > >A friend bought Toyota prius. > > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > Bet she wrecked that one and now thinking of a Prius.If it IS the same > broad..she should take the bus.......gagged. Summer? Wrecked? What r u smoking? > A friend bought Toyota prius. great mileage in the city/stop-and-go but no better than about a half dozen other vehicles on the highway some rescue crews may not be trained on how to cut you outta one after a wreck without shorting out the batteries I think you get a tax break if you buy one. Only the dealer can do any work on it.

He said that here in this state, one can also use carpool lane driving alone. > Only the dealer can do any work on it. I should tell him that. He probably knows lready. > Carl > A friend bought Toyota prius. In spite of your reputation, it's a good question. In CA, I believe you get a 100,000 mile/10 year warranty on batteries but in the real world (rest of the country), it's something like 70.000/7. OK if you do a lot of driving but once past warranty and if batteries need replacement, you might as well junk it since new batteries will cost a fortune. Fuel cost savings need be balanced with extra cost. You can get a similar size "sh.t box" for far less money and also get good mileage ;) Frank > > A friend bought Toyota prius. > > In spite of your reputation, it's a good question.

I, OTOH, feel great that I didn't make a mistake and won't feel guilty anymore. Thank you Frankie for making me feel not guilty. > Frank >>A friend bought Toyota prius. > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > mileage ;) > Frank Frank, Actually, Toyota warrants the hybrid battery for 8 years, 100k miles except in California and several states in the northeast that have adopted California rules where the battery warranty is, I believe, 10 years and 150k miles. I am in Northern Virginia and have a 2004 Prius. And it is not just a question of battery replacement -- failed high-tech components such as the multifunction display can be VERY expensive. As this topic is unrealted to Subarus, I suggest that the OP and anyone who is seriouls interested, visit http://www.vfaq.net/ and/or the Prius-2G group at yahoogroups.com . Much, if not most, of what is written about hybrids in the mainstream press is slanted or under-informed. For example, hybrid gas mileage is very much a factor of typical driving trips and driving style. Many owners achieve mileage in the upper 50s and other average much less. In one experiement, 5 guys drove a test loop continuously to see how far they could go on one tank of gas and achieved over 109 mpg!!! With over 60k miles, my 2004 varies between about 46 and 53 mpg.

With over > 60k miles, my 2004 varies between about 46 and 53 mpg. It has been a few years but Googling, Prius battery replacement cost, came up with something like $7,000/Australian. I've seen a lot of the articles you mentioned. I met one owner that drives maybe 50,000 miles/year and she loves it. Me, I'm a buy and holder and low miles/year so it would be a bad investment. Frank > A friend bought Toyota prius. Its not a Subaru. So my opinion is "meh". Why not try your post on the Toyota groups? > > A friend bought Toyota prius. > > Its not a Subaru.

She also pesters sci.chem now and then. Hate to think I'm a fellow chemist/Subaru owner. Like looking into the Subaru that drives past you and seeing the driver is a weirdo ;) Frank >> > > A friend bought Toyota prius. >> > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > weirdo ;) > Frank Its the same Stump-Stupid Amanda......if you google her IP address you can see the other garbage she posts ALL over the internet. This is the same bitch that asked for your advice and insight on Subaru's..then argued with you about them. The same one that the dealer wanted to choke out......here she goes again! > Its the same Stump-Stupid Amanda......if you google her IP address you can > see the other garbage she posts ALL over the internet. > This is the same bitch that asked for your advice and insight on > Subaru's..then argued with you about them. > The same one that the dealer wanted to choke out......here she goes again! ...but is she **hot**? :-P > She apparently owns a Subaru.

Hate > to think I'm a fellow chemist/Subaru owner. > Like looking into the Subaru that drives past you and seeing the driver is a > weirdo ;) Did no find any posts on sci.chem but I did go thru the trouble of looking up past posts on comps.lang.java.programmer and sure enough she is the kind of person I give a rating below passing on interviews. But someone else is hiring those sucky engineers and some of them are buying Priuses :-( I'm guilty of buying a car that is lame on many levels myself, but at least it has an awesome awd. Gotta love the expressions on the faces of the f.ckers who are busy tailgating you up until you drift away from them in a wet turn :-) Are there are any redeeming qualities in Prius? Driving experience? Sucks. Ease of maintenance. Sucks. TCO? High. Sucks big time. I must be missing something obvious. >Are there are any redeeming qualities in Prius? >Driving experience? Sucks. >Ease of maintenance. Sucks. >TCO? High. Sucks big time. >I must be missing something obvious. The in laws have a 2003 Prius, a Land Rover, and a 2002 Legacy GT wagon. They usually drive the Prius. They REALLY like that car. The wagon only comes out when they need the space or tow the utility trailer. The Prius is no WRX, but it's a great daily driver for them. FWIW, they are retired Haz-mat business owners who can afford anything they want... <G> I tossed my '01 OBW for an '05 Tacoma. The only reason I stay with this NG is because I keep up on the maintainence on the above mentioned '02 GT wagon. > > She apparently owns a Subaru. She also pesters sci.chem now and then.

Keep dreaming that you are in hiring process. >But someone else is hiring those sucky engineers > and some of them are buying Priuses :-( My friend who bought Prius was a white American. *Those* engineers you referred to, the foreigners, buy Honda. You have no clue, do you? Goodbye, bored people. Sorry that you are that bored that you feel the need to insult others. >> > She apparently owns a Subaru.

Be gone c.nt! we are totally bored with *YOU*......... > Goodbye, bored people. Sorry that you are that bored that you feel the > need to insult others. Happy New Year, Amanda. You should know that we don't insult everyone. You're special. You'll be back ;) Frank > >But someone else is hiring those sucky engineers > > and some of them are buying Priuses :-( > > My friend who bought Prius was a white American. *Those* engineers you > referred to, the foreigners, buy Honda. You have no clue, do you? Lets see: to date I had foreigners who sucked, I had interviewed white americans (from a very very reputable technical school) who were not very good. I had to fail the americans of asian descent who were not suitable either. I do not bring my racial and ethnic origin preferences to the interview room. Prohibited by the equal oppurtunistic laws of this land. I have a coworker who is not an American and wants to buy a Prius. I would consider him to be a good engineer. So as much as I like to believe that mostly morons are buying that crap unfortunatelly it's not the case :-( To answer your original question, I have a low, low opinion about the car and most of its owners anyway. Honda Fit with an automatic would be my car of choice if I had to spend hours daily in stop and go. Unless you're a cab driver, delivering mail or in some other profession that involves a lot of stop and go and idling For mail delivery US prius has the steering wheel on the left side anyway and the post office already has the trucks designed for the job. I could not possibly see why would you want a hybrid. Especially a heavy low performance ugly ducking like prius. > Goodbye, bored people. Sorry that you are that bored that you feel the > need to insult others. Boring car, bored people. Simple math. Ask the wise men on the toyota group. I bet they'll tell you why this is the best car ever made :-D Prius... a sucky car for people that suck. >> > A friend bought Toyota prius. >> [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > S/he must be of low opinion of Toyota owners. > Do you concur? Wonder if she has nice tits? Think she could post some pics for us? > S/he must be of low opinion of Toyota owners. > Do you concur? No. I simply don't own one and have no basis for opinion. > A friend bought Toyota prius. Thank you for expressing your apparent interest in the position of "group sh.t-stirrer". While we find your credentials to be somewhat well written, please be aware that we currently don't have openings for more in this position. We have your information on file and will contact you should an opening occur. > > A friend bought Toyota prius. > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > more in this position.

All of the loser sh.t brains who were on the edge to show how their sh.t brain works uses an excuse to show their sh.t brains'functions and you not seeing that only show that you are the master sh.t brain. > Showing how your sh.t brain works? > > All of the loser sh.t brains who were on the edge to show how their > sh.t brain works uses an excuse to show their sh.t brains'functions and > you not seeing that only show that you are the master sh.t brain.

You can apply for the junior sh.t-stirrer position though. Since the group has no equal opportunity laws to obey you can ask for a promotion by posting the tits pic as requested by the other members. Being an a.s man myself I request to provide some variety with shots of other bodily parts. I think this would release some tension partially caused by the intelligence you demonstrated in your recent post. But I somehow suspect that your are a middle aged bearded man. >> > > A friend bought Toyota prius. >> > [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > in your recent post. But I somehow suspect that your are a middle aged > bearded man. So what if I am a ugly asian girl with buck teeth sticking out? What does that have to do with anything. I know that shitbrain men want to put thier fists thru my window, thats because i am ugly. I do not need a sh.t man, i am a powerful woman! even if I am not married for the rest of my life. So what if i am a looser? i have a degre in chemstry. i am smart. Wye does my vagina smell like a dumpster...i do not know. >>> > > A friend bought Toyota prius. >>> > [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > So what if i am a looser? i have a degre in chemstry. i am smart.
