    My wife is a "hybrid specialist" at the local Toyota dealership. I have helped the dealer with a few trade shows and marketing plans.

    I have not seen what you describe. However I have seen a generally more liberal slant to the average hybrid buyer, and generally a more fussy buyer profile. I find a better comparison between people who own a pc (regular car buyer) and people who own a Mac (hybrid buyer).

    My life is a
    Ben Stiller movie.

    I was watching some recap of the power tour 06 and some dude was giving a speech to kick it off-his last line was "oh, and we'd like to inform the owner of a Toyota Prius...you're car is on fire, thank you."

    not saying everyone, like you, but most the time, mac users tend to think their shit don't stink. The Apple/Mac salesmen in stores are even worse...

    Who cares about what their car looks like....what pisses me off is the hippy hybrid owners driving 10 under the speed limit in the car pool lane.

    republican = southerner = no teeth = pickup truck = lower taxes = cares about "values" and supports candidates like Jim McGreevey and Mark Foley = gun nuts

    FWIW, I'm a registered republican obviously questioning why the hell I am.

    i've seen what you mean. when i worked at a dealership a couple years back everyone that came in and asked if we would be getting any hybrids any time soon had a crap escort wagon that was filled with holy denim jeans, flannel shirts, granola bars, walking sticks, backpacks, "how to make your own tofu" manuals, rusting, running on 3 cylinders, busted windshield, 4 different brands of tires, 3 different colors on the body, and were worried because the seat belt light didn't go off and the windshield washer fluid nozzle didn't spray just right.

    I know exactly what you are talking about. I jus left a ford dealer 3 months ago. we had those people "inquiring" about the hybrid escape, which is a car they can't fucking afford. Forget about when they have problems.......
