He he.

Re the Prius, I rented one a few weeks ago in MD to see what was what. Not the compact car of our youth. Pretty roomy due to its jelly bean shape. Lots of width and leg room. I was surprised. Got 48 MPG just flogging it and going 80 on the highway was overall pretty impressed. A blinged out version/better looking car might be tempting. Like the concept of regenerative braking in any vehicle to help the city MPG. If you look at the newly released Mercedes they use a battery no larger than the normal one to do the duty and a generic inline electric motor. More performance and better mileage = a good thing.
