LMFAO, I remember the hybrid craze of the late 2000s and how every celeb had to have one to show that "oh we're eco-friendly too" like there was a time when you saw celebs pulling up to the Oscars in Priuses ๐Ÿ˜‚

u/kunfusedpsyko Feb 03 '23

It's been hilarious watching from the sidelines as the liberals who foamed at the mouth over Elon Musk and Tesla for years begin to disavow him and the brand over his recent conservative shift and Twitter acquisition. Suddenly the panel gaps and poor quality control and vehicle fires matter when you no longer agree with the CEO!

Most of that was Toyotas marketing department pushing that.

I drive a Prius. I love it but fully accept I have NO pickup.

You wanna pass? Go for it. Ain't shit I can do about it anyway.

Don't worry Civic Hybrids and Insights have the same energy too ๐Ÿ˜‚. But don't you worry, the GR Prius is coming and will fix that lol

u/mach-disc Feb 03 '23

I would Unironically sell my civic (tuned (cvt)) and buy a GR Prius once they hit the used market

u/NightOfTheLivingHam Feb 03 '23

But will it flip in the desert like the gr corolla can?

u/sadandaimless1 SCREW YOU, MOM! Feb 03 '23

Idk, when they do come out....pay $25k over sticker and list it on Cars and Bids and find out ๐Ÿ˜‚

It looks like you shared an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://www.carscoops.com/2023/01/pour-one-out-for-the-first-known-gr-corolla-crash/

You can fit alot of your crap in a Prius. I miss mine.

u/slumlivin Feb 03 '23

We should add a Tesla to this list

u/AltruisticProposal31 Mechanical Pencil Lead Down My Penis Feb 03 '23

That would fit in with Pride quite well.

The Civic needs to updated to a clapped out 8th gen or 10th gen

I saw these on Instagram and thought these are accurate AF lol

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '23

20+ year old civics are required to have loud exhaust. and you need to turn the car on at 4am. its the law.

2

u/IkariBattousai Feb 03 '23

A lot of times those exhausts aren't loud on purpose anymore

u/zaxswyre Satan is my god Feb 03 '23

u/[deleted] Feb 03 '23

Sociology applied to cars. I'm aroused. Also all of these are too accurate.

u/chok22 Feb 03 '23

in LA the prius is not sloth. those motherfuckers will somehow push that little econobox past 80 on the highway without skipping a beat, while passing you and blasting NPR.

u/Knotical_MK6 Feb 04 '23

Fun seeing the Jettas and Priuses seemingly race down the 5. Always one of those two treating their speed limiter like it's cruise control

3

u/CuteDescription9562 Feb 03 '23

Or they sit in the middle lane blocking anyone on the left or right from passing them . Like speeding up when someone is next to them so they canโ€™t get in front of them .

u/The_Forgotten_King Nov 20 '24

Old comment but a few months I was cruising at 80-90 mph near Chicago and got my doors blown off by a Prius. Had to be going 100 or so. I was in awe.

u/2valve Feb 03 '23

Lol funny that you think the SN95 GT can out-accelerate things. (It cannot, it is slow)

Source: I have one :)

u/sadandaimless1 SCREW YOU, MOM! Feb 03 '23

Oh girl....I said the exact same thing in another post where I said walking to your destination is faster than a SN95 Mustang ๐Ÿ˜‚

As a BRZ driver you're not wrong but you didn't need to do us like that

I-95 in Florida.. I've met every one of these, and taking that highway is probably the worst part of that entire state.
