    Hey, at least we don't have to worry about him being on the wait list and getting OUR Prius.

    So true! lol

    Took a pretty big gun to do away with that Pruis!

    Yea he is. If its not something that guzzles gas or has the power of a speed car he isn't for it.

    So I take it that they won't be replacing the Humvees with the Prius in Iraq.

    FUNNY!!!
    To bad he lives on tiny island.
    Even the 45 mpg he mentions makes a hugh difference
    here in America.
    Many folks here have to drive 20 miles just to buy gas.

    I saw that back when it aired... I'm a big fan of the show. :) Anyway, a bit disappointing... the Mythbusters up in San Fran would have at least blown the thing up when they couldn't get it to blow up on it's own from automatic gun fire. :) :)

    the two videos that i watched in this thread struck me as a guy who likes toys
    that other people cannot have. if the car is for the masses and widely available
    it is crap. if the car costs more then most people's homes it is nice and an engineering
    marvel.

    but i suppose many prius owners think of their car as a means to an end, point A
    to point B in an economical manner... and not something to impress other rich people.

    that is my impression. how to look cool. expensive cars, stereotype marlboro man with
    a truck, dark sunglasses, guns, etc... basically everything that impresses children
    and teenagers.

    I wonder how much that Prius would go for on eBay?

    Their Veyron video is very moving. It's a great production.

    This is the same guy who drove the H1 and H2 and spent the first part of the segment talking about how disgusting and rediculously slow and huge they are.. then turned around and said he really wanted one because it made him feel like a little boy! lol.. I don't think he's ever grown out of being a little boy actually...
