    My 2010 Prius V with Tech is supposedly on a boat on it's way over. How long should it take to get to NY?

    hmmm...well, the flight distance is 6,755 miles from NYC to Tokyo. So, assuming running the car in Power mode and the same travel path and a constant speed of say 85 mph and you're looking at about 80 hours. Course, that doesn't take into account the stops you'll have to make for gas or food...oh, it also doesn't take into account any additional issues like drag or lack of air while driving it on the sea floor.

    Cute... I did say it was on a boat, but cute nonetheless.
