So today I take a big step towards carbon neutral [View all]

I'm taking delivery of a used ( Recycled ) 2010 Toyota Prius.

50 mpg on avarage.

As my moniker clearly states, I am a salesman who does a fair amount of windshield time. I am looking forward to passing by those gas stations even more than I did with my old Civic.

Anyone here have one? Love it? Hate it?

Just wondering....

Oh and by the way, I got a new job with life changing money after 4 plus years of suffering. So to answer the GOP pundants: Yes life is better under a Democrat.
