    I don't mind them coming here at all. I admire everyone who is passionate about a hobby they enjoy such as Cars and Trucks. Many innovations in the auto industry have started from the home hobbyist. One thing that is consistent with all car / truck forums is that they are filled with people who are greatly knowledgeable about their vehicle and can tell you about every part attached to it.

    Those guys are just a little upset that their trucks have lost over half their value in just a couple of years. They are suffering from depreciation envy.

    5mpg certainly shows a lot of pride in his vehicle and its engineering. Thanks for showing us your ride and what you've done with it. You obviously understand an engine or two. Take a look around in the technical forum and I think you'll be impressed with what Toyota has done. Don't tell your friends or they might want to buy one and then where will you be? :D

    BTW, thanks for your civil posts. As Tony said, politeness is always allowed (as long as it is in the correct forum). :)

    That V10 would look really cool in the back of a Prius. A little noisy, maybe, but what the heck. ;)

    You mean the jogging girl from the first video? I don't know her personally but have seen her around when I roller blade.

    The one single best mod you can do to Prius is the driver. One can double the MPG with a mod to the driving behavior.

    Former 07 Tundra Crew Max owner...Loved My Truck...Stopped on a Dime, but was costing almost $85 to fill up each time - which I do several times a week minimum...sooo, here I sit ..waiting for the opportunity to be a Proud Touring Prius Option 3 + Leather at Port -Owner and join the conversations...Will have an 09 at the 08 price, per the dealership - as it has been on order since late June...Hoping for Silver Pine Mica, but will look at other colors if they come available... Currently driving a Corolla which is just a tad small size wise, but for the price, a decent mileage vehicle...getting 32mpg consistenly...Only problem is that you can not put adult clients comfortably in the back seat for extended periods of time.. all that being said...I LOVE TOYOTA'S
