    "From our point of view, the Prius is terrible news for mechanics — not even the brakes wear out, thanks to the regenerative braking system. All we get to install are wiper blades. How are you supposed to buy a pair of Jet Skis on that money?"

    Just wait for the EVs - not even oil changes. Batteries get long warranties ....

    This was my favorite part . . . the honorable mentions
    :p

    They left out 2:
    the Vega
    (THAT one cost me a mint ... fortunately when it blew, I knew it was like a horse with a blown leg ... you can only put it down)
    the Hummer
    (shaking head ... GM bought the line, so it could build 'em in lieu of their EV1 that they crushed ... so still even now, GM is trying to figure out what their low/zero emission vehicle strategy is)
