  • I call total bullshit on this. I drive a (work-provided) Prius every day. This thing has some serious get-up-and-go…meaning as I drive it every day I simply smoke those (front) tires. I leave most “performance cars” (ICE) behind at the light. That means that I am tossing micro-plastics out at a greater rate than most cars. I burn though tires every 15,000 miles.

    When I get a red light (remember, I don’t own it, it’s a work car) I slam brakes until I can punch it again once it’s clear. The regen-brake thing never applies given how I drive. The Prius is not inherently greener, it’s just more fun than the ICE alternative I had before.

    I do burn through a lot less gas so I guess 30-50 MPG is worth something.

    I love my green alternative vehicle!

    I’m prepared for flames but I’m a light/sweet guy - always have been except with espresso. I control how much I use by employing heavy cream to just cover the bottom of my cup. One pump of simple syrup to that then filler 'er up from my French press. I gather that will not be your cup of tea but that’s how I like it.








  • I stopped going there a couple of years ago unless Amazon reports that they subbed delivery through USPS. My wife’s like it’s important to go every few days and every time she walks in after saying “not worth the walk” because there is never anything worthwhile anymore. If it’s important the app or the email will say so - the post is dead.
