From the small sample size of Prius owners I know, a fair percentage of them buy the Prius simply because they hate stopping at a gas station.
Another chunk wants to be more green.
Neither is a bad thing, if that’s what makes them happy in life more power to them…
As I’ve said before, I see them all the time on the road and really never have a problem with them. They drive fast enough to stay with traffic and stay out of my way for the most part. That’s something I can’t say for white Corollas and white Camrys…those drivers drive me nuts! Someone on here said that really applies to all white cars and I agree, but seems to be more pronounced with Corollas and Camrys.
As for BMWs, they certainly perform to my tastes but the styling has always been close but no cigar for me, except for the Z8 and this newest 5 series. Love’em both!
