Sorry. I just had to say it. As of this morning, the Prius is my gas guzzler. "Escuincle" the Xebra SD took me 23 miles today without using any gas at all. That's cuz there's no gas in it and no place to put any gas in it.

It's too early for me to have figures, but based on what others Xebra owners have said, Escuincle will go about 50 miles on a dollar's worth of electrons.

Literally, in Spanish, it's another word for a coyote or dog, but it's also used (in context) as a slang term for a kid or adolecent. So maybe it's his new young pooch?

It sounds like a growth you'd go to the podiatrist to have removed.

I think it also used to refer specifically to the Mexican hairless dog. Make sense, as I assume daniel's car does not have hair.

OOooo I can't wait for that one.

And yes, daniel. You'd better start posting pictures or there's going to be an online rebellion.
