Separate names with a comma.
True. Much of that "job" was the huge dose of dispersants. The environmental affects of which are not well publicized or understood. I think...
Hey! That's one way to stop unintended acceleration ... run out of fuel due to a leak.
The only thing Prius Nation needs to worry about is if Jim Sikes was hired as one of the testers. :eek:
I concur in your general statement, but I disagree with your concern for the new safety ratings. What makes you think that new safety ratings...
Nice work and documentation! I'm assuming you keep your car outside, thus the mice problem. Mine is kept in a relative tight garage - just bugs...
I haven't studied EMI in great detail, but I have a decent understanding of all types of radiation, especially the well-documented types that can...
I agree, the cost and efficiency aren't quite there yet, but seemingly about to break through soon. There are so many factors that affect the...
It emits a few discrete wavelengths which appear yellowish to our eyes. Far away from the blue-violet-UV end of the spectrum, so the bugs can't...
That's what many said (and still say) about the Prius. Even I am taken aback by the sticker shock, but you need to look at the math. You can...
62 lbs is a very believable number, since the moonroof glass and frame is heavier than the thin sheet metal it replaces. Thanks for providing...
Thank you for creating this thread. It's a great topic to investigate. I agree that the Prius seems to have markedly better ride quality than...
I understand your point. But SHM, or whatever you want to call my version of it, can be very useful on highways with moderate rolling hills....
Maximizing MPGs on hilly terrain is a subject with several sub-points to discuss. I'll refer to two of them here: First, if you are this serious...
Too many factors and variables to compare two different drivers in two different locations. For a better comparison, you would need to drive his...
Maybe conjecture was the wrong word. "Ridiculous" or "lame" is more appropriate. Did Toyota provide any actual weight figures or explicitly...
I’ve been following this thread for a while, stewing on the engineering analysis. Absent any concrete data from real-world examples, and not...
(sort-of) breaking news story of Navy Captain Jack Kriz, who survived a crash while driving his Prius in San Diego. He was hit by a driver who...
Amazing! And ridiculous that these agencies can't get it right. I'm sure the same situation comes up every 10 years with millions of addresses....
I don't think NASA is being drawn in so much for their technical expertise as it is for their knowledge about engineering processes and practices....
OK, some Toyotas have slipped, so say some sources. Big picture -- Toyotas (especially the Prius) are still higher in quality than just about...
