    Why would you......everyone knows that the Prius lacks power when its got 4 adults packed into so imagine this "beast" trying to get down the road.

    Excuse me?
    I just got home from a 2050 mile trip with 7 people and luggage in the " primo"
    the trip average was 44.1 mpg and we cruised up Monteagle Tennessee at 80 mph without any problems!

    we like the 6 door prius so much that I am sure we will build another.

    it's been almost half a year since anyone posted about this car.... nice necro.

    but the center section doesn't flow well with that curve at the top.

    its really cool but I can think of much, much, much better ways to spend my money, what is the best mpg a 4cylinder minivan can muster? Is Toyota's Sienna offered in a hybrid yet?

    AutoBeYours is a wonderful resource for the Prius community, and I don't understand why imwoody36 receives so much unwarranted criticism. He deserves more respect.

    because he revived a thread that was from last october?

    people stopped caring for this thread.. and it was buried.. along with whatever negative comments that were in the only 3 posts that it had... i'm new to this community.. but with regards to basic forum etiquette... doing what he just did... uh.. no.

    unwarranted criticism? it's more like he just brought himself unnecessary attention by opening his mouth and not letting this thread continue to collect dust as it was.

    he wants attention.. he got it.. and my comment was that curve makes the car look like it was a chop job... which technically.. it is.

    People resurrect dead threads all the time around here, and they don't get that kinda flack. Plus, we usually reserve the insults for religion and politics. ;)
