    More difficult to justify the actions of a thieving PHEV Prime; they've always got gas! (I know, I've opened myself up to more venting quips!! Let 'er rip boys and girls!!)

    It could be the app. Apparently, Facebook and Twitter use the same emoji. They may look different, based on phone vs PC and Android version vs Apple version.

    Well, it's not a Mirai. I learned from a Toyota commercial you can power those on .

    Those hydrogen fuel advocates certainly have their heads firmly implanted in cow southern ends, where they also collect the material filling their pro-hydrogen commercials!
    As of 03-07-18, per the Department of Energy, there are currently 36 hydrogen fueling stations in the entire state of California, and a huge 40 stations in the entire United States!! Wow, we're almost there, maybe in 50 years!! Be still my heart! Talk about range anxiety, and for only about $60/fill up, with a range in mid 200 miles!! I must get one TODAY!! AND the dumbest part of this scenario is the main Japanese auto manufacturers are united in their support for hydrogen powered cars!! Dumb, dumb, dumb! But I have no opinions!!

    Not really dumb. Hydrogen is "clean" for Japan because they to the messy work of getting it in Australia and ship it to Japan.

    Must be even more heavily subsidized than BEV/PHEV. Drove a Mirai; not impressed. And, the looks are just plain vanilla. There aren't even any hydrogen stations within 5 miles of me. Infrastructure is critical for us. The charge-at-home feature is lost, not to mention the tremendous range, if you swap out a Prime for a Mirai. Makes no sense for us nomads!

    Oh wise and sage priuscatprimeguy, I am but a humble miscreant pauper who can ill justify the expenditure of vast amounts of cash to replace a 1 year-old S7. Perhaps sometime in the future, after I have sold a number of albums, I'll be able to justify the purchase!

    ah but little do you know, the cell phone companies are giving 50% off on the S9 and S9+ when you set up a payment plan of two years no interest the cost of the phone is $15.00/mo when you turn in your S7

    Alright you fast-talking salesman: how much is the S9, cash money, and what is 50%, and does T-Mobile offer that deal? I'm happy with T-Mobile, and I paid a crapload for that S7, $700+. These phone prices are just ridiculous, some for $1000!! I think I'm going to put my Nokia flip phone back in service, and the battery is still good after more than 10 years!
