Oh, you have a prius... how do you like it? .... glaze over while they answer... then ask if its good on gas in a "Im really interested tone"... glaze over again... then get to the kicker.... and say oh really.... well do you have any clue how many natural resourses were destroyed shipping that thing half way around the world so you could get a few more MPG than a US built Chevy Cruze or Ford Focus...??? I bet they get pissed and huff off.

The great irony is that these eco-freaks never consider everything you mentioned about what does into producing and shipping that Prius. The even greater irony is that a hybrid is total waste of money that you'll never see a return on with MSRP markup vs what you would pay for a conventional gas engine sub-compact.
