Anti-Prius subsidy loses one

Well, another one bites the dust:

Hummm, err, the article dates from Feb. 24, 2010 but I'm not quite sure where it belongs. They did mention the Prius. Oh, there is a poetry contest for the "Ode" for the newly departed. No mention of a "happy dance" but I suspect there will be some festivities.

Hummm err, I may have to send CNW Marketing my apology. They may have been right . . . now that Hummer production is dead.

With Prius rapidly approaching two million manufactured and continued operation of both production lines means all Prius production may use more total energy in manufacturing than the total civilian Hummers. For example, Wiki reports:

• 150,000 - Hummer H3 2005-09
• 175,000 - Prius 2005
• 185,000 - Prius 2006
• 281,000 - Prius 2007

CNW Marketing really meant 'total energy,' not the energy per vehicle. Yea, total energy and they are married to Morgan Fairchild.
