Eco-movement reaches a new level - Toyota Prius Hearse
http://gizmodo.com/5301160/the-2010-toyota-priushearse
Trust us: If there's one time you can get away with a not-so-green lifestyle, it's when you're dead.
Still, this Toyota Prius Hearse plans to unleash its green yuppie fury on Japan's funeral circuit. For just $80,000 a pop, you too can ride around (rotting) in the finest of posthumous eco luxury. According to a rough translation and some metric conversion, it looks like this supersized Prius gets 52 miles per gallon. That's really pretty good for a dead person mobile. It's just too bad you won't be around to appreciate the fuel savings while giving smug looks to truck drivers at the pump.

You want to REALLY be eco-friendly when you die? Get cremated. So much land is being taken up by cemeteries - pretty soon we won't have any more room.

icon? Because I really have nothing positive to say about the car or its idea. I found it extremely amusing and just wanted to share the (IMHO) stupidity.
