Its okay, because you're giving him more electricity.  :P

P.S. Will Prius drivers stop going 55mph on the interstate because they can't get more than 40mpg driving like a normal person?

Great story......

I was driving a Mustang GT (got to borrow one for a couple of days) and I was in the fast lane on the 405 during the early parts of rush hour.

Next to me, in the carpool lane, was 5 hybrids in a row.....Prius, Prius, Civic, Prius, and Prius....all with single drivers and their cutesy little yellow "carpool lane" stickers.

Funny thing was? The carpool lane was JAMMED with traffic......while the fast lane was moving at a decent clip.

I OH so enjoyed outpacing those smug, single-occupant-driving-in-the-carpool-lane-'cause-they're-cool hybrids....all the while looking at an "average mpg" on the Mustang's trip computer of 14.8mpg....

:lol:

Hey, its like I've said before. I even have a good mileage getting car. Its 5 years old, has the "coarse" "decrepit" "insert deversive comment" 3.8L V6 in it and still turns roughly 32mph without trying.
