There must be something wrong with me. I really like antagonizing environmentalists. I once threw a bottle cap over the side of a boat just to see the reaction of a San Francisco-an. Wow, I got a lecture that time.

I guess since I have not had kids, I should get extra carbon credits from Igor's (opps I mean Al Gore's) carbon credit account.
That's a great point! I never thought of it that way before. LOL

I still drive the same 4-cyl truck that I bought back in 1995. I'll probably keep it until the wheels fall off, then recycle it.

I've known people with these cars. They, like us, are of the same mold. Very very conservative in nature. Ok, let me put it this way. They are outright BORING. I mean, most minivan drivers have more personality.
I will add that I've driven both an 03 and and 06. The 06 is a technological marvel. Definitely a class leader at the time. My friend and I both agreed, our cars are both leaders in their class.

so now I guess my 68 Vette, 86 Countach, 90 F40, 92 512TR, 95 512M are all Green mobiles
When do I get my HOV exempt stickers to apply ?
Nice collection! You get my vote for HOV exempt
Most Prius owners around here are boneheads. If you are driving a Vette they purposely cut you off and pull out right in front of you. They don't do that when I'm driving my truck.

would he really buy a miata over a vette? and you apperently got ripped off for paying 65k for a z06 which will beat the pants off a car that is worth 3 times as much?
LOL I only went there after getting dirty looks from several Prius owners
Hypermilers in clean cars giving dirty looks should just be ignored. They are always the ones poking along in the HOV lanes during non-HOV hours. I like to open up the cutouts and give them something to listen to as I hustle around them.
