If you want, you may test-drive a Prius.
I am surprised more people haven't.
Their conservation program teaches you a lot about where cars waste
fuel. ANY time the car would be better served by gravity, the Prius
shuts off the engine. Even on the freeway. I have been doing 70mph
in one and have had it shut gas power off. There was no need for it
as gravity was more than sufficient. And, if my speed goes too high,
I drag the brakes to put some of the excess into the batteries.
That is how hybrids work.
As far as my insulting people, I have 2 defenses: 1, that is just how
we talk around here, 2, he actually was an idiot. Somebody
crossposted a reply along the way.
