#60 Toyota Prius
February 7, 2008 by clander
Over the years, white people have gone through a number of official cars. In the 1980s it was the Saab and the Volvo. By the 1990s it was the Volkswagen Jetta or a Subaru 4WD stastion wagon. But these days, there is only one car for white people. One car that defines all that they love: the Toyota Prius.
The Prius might be the most perfect white product ever. It’s expensive, gives the idea that you are helping the environment, and requires no commitment/changes other than money.
The Toyota Prius gets 45 miles per gallon. That’s right, you can drive 45 miles and burn only one gallon of gasoline. So somehow, through marketing or perception, the Prius lets people think that driving their car is GOOD for the environment.
It’s a pretty sweet deal for white people. You can buy a car, continue to drive to work and Barak Obama rallies and feel like you are helping the environment!
Some white people decide to pull the ultimate move. Prius, Apple Sticker on the back, iPod rocking, and Democratic Candidate bumper sticker. Unstoppable!
There are a few ways you can use this to your advantage. If you are carpooling to an event or party you can always say “can we take your Prius? my car doesn’t get good mileage and I feel guilty driving it.” And bam! Free ride! 
Also, if you see a white person in a Prius you can say “wow, that’s great to see that you’re doing something for the earth.” The white person will feel very good about themselves and offer to drive you home, to Ikea, or drop you off at 80s night.

I kind of agree what Mike brought up, according to a recent report I read, the electricity that used by all hybrid vehicle, including the award winning Lexus CT hybrids, are actually causing more damages as well, but many people don’t realize it.
Um, while I feel strongly that everyone should be free to comment on web fora like this one, and while I don’t think that being racist, homophobic and semi-literate should necessarily stop anyone commenting, I’d just like to ask – what does all that have to do with the Toyota Prius?
Just asking… ;
get out your negro dialect translators again fruitcakes, you’re gonna need ‘em. xDDD
thanks to obozo’s feckless incompetence by manipulating gas prices to their highest ever at this time of year in an effort to force you to buy a gov’t motors volt, one of the consequences of that stupidity is… higher inflation…
that means the cost of everything has gone up, food prices are skyrocketing, peanut butter alone is up 36.6% over a year ago.. 36.6%!! in just one fucking year!! how is that helping out poor people? I suppose liberal politicians think its a 2fer because they are handling obozo’s wifes dillema on obesity at the same time… by making gas too expensive to buy, they make food to expensive to purchase healing the planet and conquering obesity at the same time???
some dumbasses think that a minimum wage should be a living wage? thats an oxymoron… everytime the minimum wage goes up the cost of everything goes up that much plus a bit more to implement it, making the need for another raise in the minimum wage to make up the difference causing the prices to go up again outpacing whatever they raise the minimum wage too.
ppl too stupid to see the cycle and how it can’t possibly work in reality, keep voting for the next guy that promises something they don’t have only to find out it isn’t enough and can never be enough. The only answer is to enhance your own skill set and earn more than the minimum wage that will out pace the next fruitcakes push to raise it.
In plain English this is called, chasing your tail. You keep running in circles doing the minimum expecting the maximum and never breaking even let alone getting ahead.
Enter one feckless, incompetent, in over his head, queer hugging negro, ass clown deluded by illusions of granduer and you have a recipe for disaster.
Spending more money than our GDP, while simultaneousely doing everything he can to lower our GDP puts in a position of fiscal collapse like Greece…
No amount of liberal wishful thinking, and/or drug induced daydreaming can change reality one bit. liberal tax and spend policies don’t work, have never worked anywhere they’ve ever been tried and simply can’t…
The sooner you dumbfucks stop sticking your hands out to gov’t to feed your dumbasses, and either put them to work or starve to death the better off all of us will be.

Response to the blogger’s assertion that by driving a Prius, we think we’re helping the environment:
Wrong. We’re just damaging it less than you are.
