Cowboy Curtis' Views on Hybrids

This rant stems from an articles published today that is probably enough to send every tree hugger in the U.S. into a tail spin, and off to the grocery store to stock up on more of those recycled eco-friendly grocery bags. (Sidebar--Whats the rage with those lately anyways??!!)
Apparently a new road test shows that a BMW 5-series gets better mpg than a Toyota Prius. Well if that isn't pie on the face of the auto execs at the Toyota plant, then I don't know what is. Let's hear it for all the owners of Prius' around the nation.
a) You bought an ugly car that resembles a turd
b) You spent an assload of $$ on said vehicle
c)You could have bought a BMer and been better off to begin with.

That makes me chuckle!

Here is the article:

BMW 5 Series Beats Out the Toyota Prius

And now CC's rant....

"And have you noticed that all the networks are trying to have the "hip" characters drive these things. Well, they can have every cool actor, athlete, scholar, and playmate on earth drive them, and you know what? Each one will look like a doofus driving a shoebox with wheels. Driving one of these eco-dorkmobiles is like eating a banana, you simply cannot do it without looking ridiculous (well, playmates excepted).

Really, if you are a guy, what are your chances of actually getting a real live girl to sleep with you when you drive something like this. No sober, non-hippie woman with an ounce of self respect is going to debase herself like that.

Dude, have some self respect! Driving a hybrid, you might as well wear a sign saying you've been neutered."
