it would hurt them, because if you behave and drive your car like a civilized person the numbers get to close to the prius. i think many ppl would be like "well f*ck that" to the hybrid. the prius costs a lot money and would effectively hurt toyotas profits.

personally i think the prius is the most backward P.O.S. ever (not that build quality is bad after all it is a toyota) but they mine the nickle for the batteries in canada then ship it the the UK where they treat it and make it into a foamy type of consistancy and then ship it again to toyota city, japan and then import them all over creation. hows that for a carbon foot print.
