View Full Version : Prepare to be Frustrated mparrish 04-01-2008, 11:08 AM Not big enough for a news item. Grrrrr.............................. http://cars.about.com/b/2008/04/01/toyota-announces-non-hybrid-prius-v6.htm laurieaw 04-01-2008, 11:12 AM do you think maybe it's an april fool's joke? bestmapman 04-01-2008, 11:14 AM do you think maybe it's an april fool's joke? If it is not, I am going to be pissed. mparrish 04-01-2008, 11:15 AM If you are right Laurie, you've made my day. It would be a good one, cause it would be so NOT surprising. :) mparrish 04-01-2008, 11:16 AM "In place of the HYBRID badge, the Prius V6 will get a HY6RID badge -- which, according to Toyota, stands for "High-performance 6-cylinder Racing Inspired Design." OK, this is a joke. :) You got me, I admit it. atlaw4u 04-01-2008, 11:44 AM Happy Fools Day to all. brick 04-01-2008, 01:52 PM That didn't have me going at all. Not only is it a hokey article, but the 17/25 numbers aren't even close to what you would get if you stuffed a V6 in a light, aerodynamic Prius shell. 30+ highway would be a gimme. mparrish 04-01-2008, 02:09 PM That didn't have me going at all.

Yeah, re-reading it and it's pretty obvious. I must admit that my "analysis" was limited to "cars.about.com" anouncing something that we all fear already. vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2012, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
