Wow...... Is she sick or something? She's got a whopping hole in her marble bag lol.
Having little ones in the car, how come they weren't smart enough to just drive away? - Must have been a Walmarts parking lot ehh.

They should've just told her what I/we said about her damn Prius and its true pollution and damage to the environment.

You see that sort of thing often, ugly fat women who can't get a date taking it out on the rest of the world.

I have been looking around a bit and I haven't seen any aftermarket for the Prius. That seems like a logical conclusion though!

Sold it for the same price I bought for a year ago, so no loss and it covered half the cost of the Prius. The little Toyota gets 28 MPG at its speed limited 108 MPH. It gets 50+ around town. That's better than my turbo motorcycle. Crazy...

Oh yeah, it's faster than the Expy was too.

Done it a little differently. I haven't totally sold out for gas mileage, but I don't use the truck for a DD, - haven't for about 8 years or so. I downgraded to Mercury Marquis for awhile, - traded that in a few months ago for a new one, well an MKS anyway. I get twice the mileage the truck does, but still use it quite a bit. Trucks getting 13 mpg, last tank. The MKS is about 26 mpg.

I don't drive a whole lot, I couldn't imagine driving something smaller than what I'm using now. Probably feel nekid lol.

Chrome spinner straight outta the 90s, flames down the sides, and underglow neons are universal

I was arguing with a liberal friend of mine (female, smh) and showed her that video immediately after I posted it and she said "One, I'm not some 'fat Prius lady' and two, I never said anything bad about your truck!" "I never said ya were or did sweetheart, but you're all the same"
