Pod o' Priuses

seasidetraveler · 11-08-2007, 12:47 AM

I love when I get to my car and see another Prius parked next to me- I will go out of my way to park next to a Prius, and get so excited when some nut does the same!
Tonight on the freeway there was a "herd" of 3 Prii and none of them even looked my way as I passed. Those must be the ones that simply view their car as transportation-LOSERS! hahahaha

Or they were so busy watching their mpg and working on pulse & glide that they didn't even notice that you passed!

An efficiency of Prii?

I'm trying to learn the pulse-n-glide (still failing) and was coming home late last night on a four-lane highway, and the prius ahead of me suddenly slowed down. I moved over to pass, but I quickly realized he might be P&Ging. I stayed behind him for about 25 minutes before he turned off and think I learned something, he was probably pretty puzzled about why I didn't pass him considering he was going 35 in a 45 zone. Whether he was actually doing it or was just old or on the phone I will never know...

Check out the "Pri Amigos". Me and some friends at work with an '05, '06, and an '07.

Oh that's just cool...

and the only visible difference I can see is the fog lights, which isn't a yearly mod, just an added feature.. excellent!!

Came out to the parking lot after work and found a small gathering of Priuses. First time that's happened in my little lot.

The funniest thing about the photo is how HUGE the Prius looks next to that Miata.

I counted NINE Prii's (2004-2007 model) between my house and town today - roughly 4 1/2 miles.

I have been dying to talk to another owner about MPG in our terrain and finally did. "I'm getting about 46 MPG...", "Around town?", I jealously asked. "Oh no. Can't get that kind of MPG around here. Average 36 MPG's in town."

One owner down, hundreds to go.

A Drove of Dreams

A Gaggle of Green
A Throng of Thought
A Pack of Pride
I like the Pride of Pri the most

Being down here close to the ocean we would call those
"A school of prii"
