    Larry,
    Welcome to Clown School - er - PriusChat!!

    Is she your ex because she had a bad habit of exhibiting sour grapes?
    Why is it that every time we get something we really like, there's always someone who tries to knock the wind out of it.? I'm sure you don't look like a circus clown and you should be proud to be driving the highest-mileage, lowest-emissions vehicle on the road today.

    What do you care what your ex-wife thinks? If she had any taste, she'd still be married to you, right?

    Who ARE these people who say the Prius is small? Seeing as my last car was an Echo, and the one before that a Geo Metro (what can I say, I've always loved cars with great gas mileage), the Prius is the largest new car I've ever owned.

    Consider the source...

    And, why would you: a) let her in your car, and b) give a rip what she thinks?

    She's just jealous because you took the car over her. You made a good choice.

    Well, previous posters have stated all my comments already, however, there is one thing I'm still thinking of doing.

    For car shows, I want to take one of my antenna magnetic mounts and build a "key handle" to mount on it. Then I'll just have to round up a bunch more clowns to ride in the car, to jump out, run around the car, and wind it up when we stop. ;)

    You realize she'd say the same thing if you showed up in an '08 Jaguar XK?

    Tell her many clowns will fit because her fat butt is no longer taking all the space in your car.

    OMG! Andy's GIRL???!!! And she's 47? Oh, for God's sake, I haven't been anybody's 'girl' since I was about 15. Sounds like she's the clown, if ya ask me.

    Men who drive Prii are SEXY... they have class, brains, and money. Class because they don't (or shouldn't) give a rat's nice person what somebody's 'girl' thinks about their fine ride, brains because they own the greatest piece of automotive technology to date, and money because they waste so little of it on gas.

    It's no wonder that she's an 'ex'... good riddance! Now, go find yourself a smart WOMAN!

    Actually, let's think about this for a moment... what are clown cars known for? Holding an uncommonly large number of clowns!

    My Prius is actually roomier than the four-door Saturn I was driving, so I would take that statement as a compliment.
