Crazy thing happened last night

Uh... Yeah! What were you thinking?

These are the kind of practical pictures we need to counteract ther AP photos of new owners beating their Prii to death with a crowbar because they can only get 50mpg when the advertisement *promised* them 60!

 

put it back in and take a pic

 

I was going to suggest the same thing....

 

I think that I should carry my camera more. I stopped at Trader Joe's this morning and when I came out there was another Salsa Prius next to mine...took a couple seconds to recall my plates and then I saw that the mom was still in the car. I think she was waiting for me. I tapped on the window and asked her if she was trying to confuse me, she said she just couldn't resist parking next to the Cranberry.

 

I had a similar experience once with my Beetle. I currntly drive a Green New Beetle. I was coming out of Meijer's one day (meijers is like supertarget/super wally world) and as I want to my car there were four, yes, four green beetles parked side by side... I really could not believe it... but I was able to figure out which one mine was...

 

Ok... but i'll need gas money.. a place to stay (blankets/sheets/bed..the whole works.. just not my car). Some hot food... (human food preferably). A Hot shower (hot girl optional) and pay since i'll be off work for that week. I don't make much... so.. uh... you won't have to brake the bank. <_<

LOL

oh yeah.. i wanna play on that piano too. I'm a little rusty though.. so forgive me ahead of time.

 

That looks like a good sized piano... Does it come assembled or disassembled???

 

Well, hell. I'm coming over too!

 

Whoa.... put it back in and take a pic - seriously. I'm having doubts.

 

That was my justification to get a cell phone with a camera. I figured that sometime I would need to take a picture when I don't have my regular camera.

 

I know, the space in the back is humongous. I was able to put a small desk in it and was easily able to close the hatch. The desk sits next to the workstation in my home office and it's roughly (I'm estimating) four feet long, three feet high and maybe two feet deep but it's probably less than that.

 

I thought about removing the rear seats and making the back end of the Prius into a piano bar, but thought that would be a bad idea if I ever got stopped. Besides, the headroom towards the rear end would be pretty scanty, so the patrons would need to be short. I don't know too many really short people who would like to drink at a piano bar in the rear of a moving Prius, so I just bagged the idea............

 

Ya never know. Years ago I had as part of my job making reservations for groups wanting to hold events in our community center. The most interesting one I made (a KKK meeting came in second!) was for the Intermountain West Regional group of the Little People of America. I had never heard of them.

My community center had a pre-school day care center accomodating 80 children. What made our facility desirable to them was that they could replace all the adult-sized furniture normally supplied in our gym with the downsized furniture (tables at which to sit as well as chairs), and at no extra charge!). I stopped by the weekend of the meeting, and have never seen so many "midgets" (no offense) in one place in my life! Where did they all come from!?

So yes, Bob, a piano bar for Little People in the back of your Prius might actually fly. Put Billy Joel back there playing "Piano Man", and I'd come, too.

 

Well, I didn't carry a piano in my Prius but I did buy a bed frame and a couch, complete with cushions, at IKEA and got both in the car with he hatch fully closed. The guy at IKEA was as amazed as I was. Of course, I didn't have room for him so I had to take the bloody stuff out myself

 

Yeah, it is humongous. I haven't had a chance to use it to its full potential, but last week my husband dismantled his glass/metal desk to take it out of our 2nd bedroom and to his work. He wasn't able to fit the glasstop in his Accord, as the seats don't fold down flat. I told him that I'd bet him it'd fit in MY car and he didn't think it would. Alas, it did-with more than enough room to spare on all sides.

It was one of these. Not super impressive, but I was still pretty proud that it fit.
30" Hx 56" Wx 30" D (but minus the metal portion-it could have fit, but he didn't want to scratch the glass).

 

i'm with V8. minus the hot girl. :lol:
