        The thing is, it only gets that kind of gas millage because it goes the first 70 miles or what ever on just the batteries. It's not like they invented an engine that gets 125MPG fuel economy.

        These guys did what they did a LONG time ago:

            A Hummer is more economical than a Prius http://www.katu.com/news/consumer/Other/7561002.html

            This is part of the reason that I hate the prius, the other part is that they are slow, ugly and I hate the kind of people who drive them.

              If I had the money. I would buy a prius and swap in the biggest gas guzzling motor I could and then go around revving at Tree lovers and prius drivers.
