LOL Now this is FUNNY!

That's why I don't drive a blue Prius. A *black* Prius is a whole different thing.

prius does not idle

 

It does very rarely but it will be busy doing something, so I guess it doesn't. Confused?
It will idle if the battery is low or it needs to warm the engine.

 

Saw Jeff Dunham live - It was awesome. I highly suggest anyone that gets the chance to go, go

 

He's especially good on the second show of the night (after he's apparently had a little "toddy for the body" between shows). We caught him at Viejas last October and he was obviously feeling no pain. Made for an insanely funny show.

 

Try living in Canada during the winter. My prius idles constantly if its colder then -20 C.

 

Sorry, I experienced a short time at -20C last week in Chicago and that was enough.
I guess I arrived early enough to get a good seat.

Many people have heard my analogy of why people live in insanely cold climates. By the way, the same applies to those who live in insanely hot climates. It will be 26C and dry here today.

My analogy regarding people living in harsh environments.
A country town sporting event, there is a stand on the western side of the sports field, it's a cold day and raining, the wind from the north is blowing the rain into the stand so the seats on the northern end of the stand are wet while the seats at the south end of the stand are dry.
People start to arrive at the ground, the people who get there early occupy the drier seats in the stand so the stand fills from the south end. Eventually all the dry seats are taken and people, resigned to getting wet, start to sit in the less comfortable seats where the rain is driving in. Eventually the stand is full, the people who got to the ground early are sitting in comfortable dry seats while those who arrived late are being pelted with rain in the wettest, coldest northern seats.

You guys arrived late.
