    Hehehe...I had no idea a Prius could be pushed to such a speed.

    Did anyone else noticed that he got in a Quattroporte in the end?

    We've had a Prius for three years and love it. 100 mph is the absolute top end, but I have been there in the open roads of central New Mexico. It's noisy and a little twitchy...not really much fun. It only get 20 MPG at that speed <g>.

    But, think of the carbon credits you get. If you're a liberal and crash into someone at that speed and set them on fire, you get even more carbon credits.

    LOL

    Here's a puzzler...do I get the credits if the car I hit is an SUV running E85?

    Not precisely. You don't get any credits for the E85. However, you get double credits for hitting the SUV, and triple credits for turning the occupants into pure carbon
