Ferrari Mailing List: Re: NFC: Any hybrid daily drivers out there?

[Peter Pless (ferrarilist]

As a matter of fact...my father and girlfriend both drive a toyota prius.

I love driving it. As long as you drive it in the way it was intended, and
not like some sort of sports car, I think anyone would enjoy driving it.
They get, in the real world, less than 5l/100km
They use less fuel in traffic than on the open road!
The dead silence every time you stop is eerie.
They have all the "mod cons"
The steering feels great.
So far in 3 years of ownership, not one problem (as you'd expect from
toyota)

Overall, the fuel economy is just a bonus.

Subject: [Ferrari] NFC: Any hybrid daily drivers out there?

Any hybrid daily drivers out there on the F-list?  I'm seriously thinking of
getting a hybrid of some sort.  Not that it will make any immediate economic
sense (buying a hybrid to "save" money on gasoline expenses) but I'm just
really getting pissed (in the American sense of the word, although, Britt
and Francis, if you're out there, I did have a drink tonight and sorta plan
on having another one) at the high gasoline prices.  I paid $3.599 per
gallon yesterday or the day before, and about 6 or 7 days prior to that gas
was "only" $3.299 per gallon.  9.1% price increase in less than 1 week?!?!
Yikes!  That's what, 473.2% per year?  
You gotta be kidding me.
Thanks to all,
Tom (about to have one more drink "for medicinal purposes") Reynolds Tulsa,
