Separate names with a comma.
Good idea. It seems there should be rules requiring the immediate shutdown of a plant if its backup systems are not fully functional, and rules...
I was in Germany just before I bought a Prius in the US. The Prii in Germany had an MSRP that appeared to be about 40%-50% higher than in the US....
I think it makes me view non-Prius drivers as even more stupid than before. I know the cost is an issue for many people, but there are certainly...
Yes, that's what I'm saying. When it's first warming up, not all parts of the engine are the same temperature. If you let it run a little, then...
This whole issue will soon go moot as solar power rapidly becomes affordable. And you won't have to rely on a utility to provide it for you....
I think this would effectively warm up the engine more slowly, which is probably better because of reduced thermal shock. I've found that for...
Well, it's a no-brainer to me. Though, it would be foolish to not also install wind power generators.
Well, so far I've discovered I can boost the MPG by driving around 40MPH while the engine is warming up (as opposed to 25MPH in stop-n-go...
I work in the solar industry. I don't know all the particulars, but the article is generally true. I think the timeline they give is probably a...
And dark energy must be the untapped galactic expanse of oil reserves, just waiting for future Hummers to burn.
Just a short time ago, there were NO ads that mentioned fuel economy, other than Prius ads. Everybody else wanted to sell you something that can...
When I got my Prius a couple months ago, a gearhead at work asked me (via email) the time from 0-60mph. This of course misses the point of the...
Maybe I need some re-educating. My understanding about maximizing MPG is that you want to use the engine at its peak efficiency when it's...
You're assuming that high speed planes of the future require the same amount of power as today's planes. There is no law that says it takes x...
Sounds like Wonder Woman's invisible jet. Except you can't collect solar energy with transparent solar panels. As for it being impractical...
I discovered this today with my new scangauge. The engine ran at 1280rpm regardless of my driving, while warming up from "cold." I thought maybe...
My Scangauge arrived today, and I used it a little bit. I was surprised to find that the magic 1800rpm 'peak efficiency' is right at the top end...
It would be slick if they made a corresponding retrofit kit for the older Prii. I think they should have a solar panel that actually charges the...
I have personally had that issue, mostly on a car I don't have any more. When a car with bright lights came up behind me, I felt like I was...
I had a thought for a license plate frame: "Prius owners / Pulse and Glide." My problem with frames is they cover the bottom edge of the plate...
