@tonyola: Yep. That's exactly what I am trying to say. Miatas aren't cool - I've got one. Great car, good fun, and totally uncool.

@icntdrv: I submit, for the approval of the midnight society, the idea that cars ladies like generally aren't cool.

@icntdrv: "Not as cool as a Wranger/CJ"

@Totoros Porsche: You complain an awful lot. Do your own research. Just for funsies, in 2004 Toyota sold 3 times as many Tacomas as Priuae. The past year, it was damn near even. If we compare the Prius instead to a company known for its trucks, and not for it's hybrids, the numbers are obscene.

@mytdawg: [pressroom.toyota.com]

@SpikeJnZ - Lopan Incarnate: I think it's greek. Priuae.

@Rä¢inG73 - ain't nuthin' but a G73 thang: Even if they had the money (which they apparently don't), I wonder if there's a helicopter that could lift the wreckage at 3 miles up. There's not a lot of air up there.

@zophiel: It's adorable that you think the world works that way.

@egoods: I'm sure he's referring to the one in the original post, since that one looks exactly like some road-raging lunatic about to murder the cameraman.

@parabellum2000: ...and if some plain-clothes came at you gun-drawn, and you shot them first, you'd spend the rest of your life in prison for killing a cop.

@SpikeJnZ - Beeblebrox For President: If you look VERY closely, you can make out that she's not holding approval for an American license.

I would purchase a diesel that would run on gasoline in a pinch - that should be the goal of this experiment.

Would you rather...

@jodark: no, I'm just saying the stupidity has higher consequences in the sunny states.

@jodark: That's probably the heat more than the stupidity. My wife's black on black accord would hit 120 degrees if you parked it in the sun for 5 minutes in a Texas summer. Here in Virginia, there are clouds, it's 10-15 degrees cooler, and it would take a full afternoon to heat up like that.

@Liz Woodring Rezes: I don't want to be That Guy, and I know there are certainly exceptions - but if you can't afford to take the time off work, or you can't afford a sitter, or you can't afford the methamphetamines...

having spent some time in both WY and AK, 0 makes sense. In the summer, everyone leaves all their windows down and/or their doors unlocked. I don't think Wyoming-uns even know how to work locks, be it house or car.

@Markstre302: Thanks everyone! that's a cool transmission.

Can somebody explain what's going on with his shifters? My google-fu is weak today, and my knowledge of high-end dragsters is weak everyday.

@Baby Beater Benz: I'd have to disagree here. Trucks need to get the job done, and you can't get the job done in Houston, TX in the summer, without A/C.
