Next Prius to offer 94 mpg?


The next Toyota Prius will offer an astonishing 113 mpg, according to a
report by the U.K.'s AutoExpress magazine. (Note: 113 mpg in the U.K.
is equal to 94 mpg here in North America). "The whole electrical
system has been redesigned to improve economy" said a Toyota engineer
was quoted as saying. "We are working on a prototype that runs solely
on the electric motor in slow traffic, but switches to engine and motor
drive when higher speeds are needed." The 0-62 mph time will also be
improved by more than a second, according to the report, bringing it to
well under 10 seconds. Much of the improvement can be attributed to the
use of lithium-ion batteries instead of nickel-hydride units. The
lithium-ion batteries are smaller, lighter, and have greater electrical
output

Hell - you don't even know the price of the car or the price and
longevity of the batteries.
Buy a beater. 20 mpg in a beater is the same as 60 in a new car.

What does it matter? You can't afford one, and wouldn't buy one even if
you could. Or do you think one of your bath house buddies will be
buying one for you, pussy?

You don't need a boat. Walk or bicycle your lard ass to the lake and
do some swimming.

The lake is 290 miles away and the boat is for fishing.
