06- Prius/Civic Hybrid comparison

Why not provide us the fake info here so that we can reuse it rather than fill their database with false individuals?

Their spec on the Prius is totally wrong. It said HP is 76 at 5000 RPM. That's just the gas engine, combine with the motor, it's 110 HP at 5000 RPM.

They should do more research before writing an article.

 

I visit another board called www.greenhybrid.com
The founder owns a prius, but alot of Honda owners frequent the board and do a lot of model comparisons and lean heavly towards the Hybrid Hondas..
But there are a few of us Prius owners trying to keep the truths going lol... <_<

 

Is that an invitation to support prius owners on greenhybrid.com with facts?

I also visit that site occasionally. But not a member.

 

LOL, Not really an invite but all are welcome, I cruise all the postings .

When I was researching new cars (6 months worth).. I used sites like edmunds they give you the pros / cons then they have a seperate statment that seems more pointed at the dealer on how great each car is, I guess that not to piss off the manufacturers and have them sue.. like reading between the lines..
BTW, All the comparisons I did showed the prius far out classed the the Civic from 04' to 06', for roomyness & performance and the new civic (to me) looks like a flattened prius... I keep hearing/reading peoples negitive posts on the prius but see how ugly the new civic is and find out they are just honda only owners (in the family) so to speak..

I saw a posting from a guy asking about the new prius, lol the honda guys where trying to wade him over to the DARK SIDE (so to speak) to the honda because you paid less and got more?.. I said you get less you pay less.. I have always been a Ford/Dodge man my self the wifes been a chevy girl all her life.. now we both own Toyotas and are very pleased she said she wont own anything other than a hybrid toyota since the 04' prius.....

 

Oh come on, its just a magazine (and not a very successful one at that) with an article written to do one thing, get subscriptions. They're just editorial opinions.

We all love our Priuses but its just a car, and nobody is going to be damaged by their stupid review.

 

This seems to be a magazine about sports cars, so they naturally are not going to like a car like a Prius if they want it to behave like a Jaguar. I don't understand why they would even write a review of a Prius or Civic hybrid.

 

They feel left out because hybrids are hot now. So they try to pretend that they care.

We've seen this countless times over the years. And it's really easy to figure out where their loyalties actually stand. Just do a search for Camry. If you can't find any mention, they really don't have any interest in family cars. So there's no way Prius stands a chance with their particular audience.
