Hope the CEO didnt read this.
"Confessions of a Prius owner ""My name is Dave and I was a Toyota Prius owner for owner for one month. It's been 2 days since I last drove a Prius.
<Audience answers "Hello, Dave">
In the third week of July, I took delivery of a brand new 2010 Toyota Prius after doing weeks of research and test driving them. I thought the Prius was a great idea, practical, and that being a techie I would love the gadgetry of it.
Then something happened a few days later...I looked up, I looked at the road around me, and I listened to the car and experienced everything around me. I realized at some point that I wasn't actually driving the car, but rather I was its guest, sending mild suggestions of how I'd like it to behave and then at some point later, the car might incorporate those into its own plans. I was a mindless drone stuck in a automobile coffin. I realized that bicycles, small children with dogs, and little old ladies with walkers were passing me. I realized that with my nose buried in the MPG display I had become that obstacle that I used to hate on the road messing up the traffic flow.
I knew I had to get out, that I had sold my car loving soul to a devil car with no soul itself and do something before I was lost. I had to go cold turkey, no 2 ways about it. I didn't tell the Prius-spawn, but I secretly began plotting its demise behind its back."
