The funny thing is the baby just prefers to just haul ass.

what i honestly fail to understand is the obsession with some of those "hybrids"...


your prius driven on city (guessing since at highways speeds it does worse sometimes then a vette) gets you slightly better gas millage then a well built small combustion only car like a civic diesel (near 40mpg).



how on earth is the mpg gain justifiable other then a status symbol of sorts outside of the maybe 6 bucks it saves you per fill up?




(nothing personal, just a personal conundrum/hatred for anything that can't be solely driven off of solar panels and advertised as "earth saving") oh and cute kid, and nice viper...
