Miles/Kwh

Absolutely. The right tool for the right job. Now if you said you drove the Ferrari for range and the Prius to let it rip...I would suggest a three day mental health stay at a hospital facility.

HA!! My Prius did have a sticker on the rear bumper saying "My Other Car is a Ferrari." I always wondered how many folks took that seriously or thought I was just kidding!!!

I owned a Prius for 3 weeks. Sold it back to the dealer still with their gas in the tank, got a corvette instead.

The Prius is the perfect car for people who hate cars.

Here's a post I wrote on it back in the day:

Priusii need to stay out of the left lane - permanently

Not often but I do sometimes see a Prius driving quickly and keeping pace in the fast lane (which typically means at least 75). But it is rare. on the other hand, I have seen folks driving corvettes, Tesla Plaids, BMW 550s, etc. driving slowly in the left lane. Actually, I am more concerned about folks driving Buicks slowly in the left lane.

My bottom line, drive like the driver's manual told you: move to the right until you are keeping pace with traffic or all the way to the right. Get out of a lane left of the right lane if you are not keeping up. So simple...even a fool could do it. So I guess must drivers today are not even at the "fool" level.

I have always loved cars, but I also love our planet and reducing my carbon footprint was important to me so I suffered through the Prius for what used to be a 50 mile each way commute...I am glad that modern EV tech allows me to have the best of both worlds...

Usually in my experience the Buicks have their left blinker stuck on too. I am not bashful with these folk - I flash my lights at them - if you are not passing - get out of the left lane, plain and simple. If you don't like me flashing you - get out of the left lane - problem solved.

Rather than drive a Prius I moved near a train station so my commute was a walk to/from the train. It's been 25 years since I've driven to get to a job.

Mine is inverse, kids and wife crank up the HVAC and heated seats just like the home I use all the kwh for acceleration and NOT AC

Many, many moons ago I saw a VW Bug that had a license plate frame that said, "When I grow up, I want to be a Lamborghini"
