3) i'm an american man, so i'm too pussy to call a woman out when she suggests some pointless safety law

Siver lining for the Toyota PR guys:

A Prius can do 90+ MPH if you have enough highway to allow it to get there.

All of you "put it in neutral and turn the key off" people realize that the tranny is fly-by-wire and won't go into neutral over 35 mph and there is no key to turn off, right?

I've had my throttle get suck 3 or more times and I'm still here. A few times was with the old 800 vacuum hosed carb (some hooked up wrong) and once when I added a one of those long springs so I could have more resistance in the pedal.


Fucking GTAIV that bitch and jumped the fuck out.
