My opinions on hybrids, anyhow.

 

He usually validates what I think too.

 

"which shows leaves growing on a tree when you ease off the throttle"

I want my dashboard to show seals getting clubbed at a rate proportional to throttle input.

 

I concur, also.. yeah. Hybrids do nothing. Electric Vehicles also don't make much sense were the electricity is made by non-renewable energy sources. Hydrogen, or a network of battery swapping stations makes more sense, but in North America we won't see it till the oil wells go dry.

edit- "If the beardies want to be local they should buy a Range Rover"

 

God, Jeremy Clarkson cracks me up so much. This is a great article

 

"Really, to get an idea of how awful it is, you’d have to sit a dog on a ham slicer. "

 

i dont think he likes the insight, im not sure htough i could be wrong

 

Hybrids **** me off, especially Prius's, as I live in Berkeley, hippie ville USA, they're ****ing everywhere...

WTF would you pay 30k+ for a POS Prius that gets the same MPG as a Geo metro that costs 1/30th, not only are you not polluting the world with hazmat worthy batteries, but you'd be recycling.

Ecotards make me want to punch babies.

+1 on clubbing seals proportional to throttle.

 

lol at ecotards

 

srsly. self-righteous hybrid drivers are funny - they aren't doing the environment a favor or anything, because you're still driving a car. It's like, instead of smoking two packs a day, I'll just cut back to 1.5 packs a day - that will surely prevent cancer.

 

It's funny because it's not ham.



...




I'll go now.

 

seriously boggles my mind that majority of the people dont get that.

 

lol he said "Toyota Smugmobile"

 

Good read. I can't wait for Top Gear to be back.

 

I actually like the old school Insight but completely agree with his article.
