Do Priuses run stop signs at a higher rate? If so, is it because of the awful A pil­lars, or because they are try­ing to con­serve momentum?

    Are you try­ing to tell us some­thing, Danny?

    Also, what’s your ver­dict of the Prius after hav­ing it for a cou­ple of years? Still like? Big enough for fam­ily trips?

    I won­der if Toy­ota ever put much thought into the use of the plural form of Prius. What an ungainly word.

    Hav­ing suf­fered through many years of Latin, I feel mildly con­fi­dent point­ing out that “prius” is a Latin verb mean­ing “to pre­cede” or some­thing along those lines. How­ever, Prius today is used as a noun, so.…

    A quick Google search reveals this mildly humor­ous gem.

    Inci­den­tally, it amuses me to learn that Danny has a Prius since we too have a Prius, hav­ing glee­fully embraced the lit­tle mar­vel after seven mis­er­able years behind the wheel of New Bee­tle. That wretched VW ver­min was lit­er­ally in the shop 40 times, yet never offi­cially qual­i­fied as a lemon. Our Prius, now going on four years, has never been in the shop.

    That we hap­pened to go hybrid just in time for oil to sky­rocket was pure sim­ple luck.

    And as for A pil­lars, the Bee­tle has about the worst imag­in­able. They are truly a safety haz­ard. The Prius is a huge improvement.
