Actually I have both been in and driven a Pri`us...even took it on vacation
with 4 people and luggage... 900 mi trip.. and yes .. it does preform...
however, as you say the "green-washing" is most annoying and objectionable.

The "I drive a Pri`us" you may kiss my ring because I'm so green, attitude.

When and if your Pri`us is 35 yrs old, bring it by... I'll still be driving
my MBZ and enjoying it.  Previous to this Pri`us there was another, bought
new 2 yrs ago.. it already started developing "issues" so it was traded in
for a new 2011 version because the repair vs trade & replace cost was
nearly a wash.
