So what kind of person owns a Prius?

Okay, since my last poll wasn't very thought out, maybe this will work better.
And for the curious, my choices were (in order) 1, 3,

Ok, answered this time

For the record, you can also get Car Pool Lane Rights in Virginia.

And New York! However, I received them and didn't put them on. New York state requires 4 stickers! One on every corner of the car. The carpool lane in my area only extends about 20-30 miles on the Long Island Expressway and it has certain hours posted. So I haven't felt a need to enter the carpool lane.

Interesting how the over 50 group is leading the way. And they say us children of the 60's are all burnt out from drugs and and have Atention Defi "oh look a bunny; Hi cute little bunny!"

Shouldn't the last set of questions allow multiple answers?

30-34 yr female here. I chose "Wanted to help the environment" but it was also the mileage and the fact that the Prius is a hatchback. And so darned cute too.

Pretty sure they didn't have prozac back in the 60's

Actually, this poll is not just about what kind of person owns a Prius. Its about what kind of person owns a Prius AND actively participates in the PriusChat website. So, some of the questions might be skewed. Lets see... which questions would be skewers <_< ... without being sexist or racist or otherwise prejudiced, I claim the 5th.

View Poll Results: My new revised poll, ver. 2.0.1b
I wanted to help the environment	13	9.29%
I wanted to attain the gas efficiency and savings	31	22.14%
I wanted the latest in automotive technology	6	4.29%
I wanted to get the carpool lane stickers (in California)	1	0.71%
All of the first three choices	71	50.71%
I wanted to impress my spouse/neighbors	0	0%
I just like the nerd appeal	4	2.86%
I was in the market for a new car anyways	5	3.57%
Upgrading from a previous Hybrid/Prius	4	2.86%
None of the above	5	3.57%
Voters: 140. You may not vote on this poll
