That was fun. Must've been a car show or something. They both had raced past me and stopped at the red light ahead, I timed it right, and didn't have to stop, passing both of them while they were stopped and I was at 35 MPH in EV.

Too bad you couldn't have made some "whoopie" cushion noises as you drove stealth-ily by...  Or better yet, attach some balloons to your wheels so it sounds like a big block chevy.....

299: Due to obsessively reading every single post on GreenHybrid.com, you know more of EVERYTHING about your on-order hybrid than the dealership, including design changes, technology, and even delivery ETA!!!!

300. You fill up your gas tank so infrequently that you forget which side it is on.
301. You are impressed that your spouse wants to trade in the minivan for another hybrid, and the minivan is less than a year old. By the way, the minivan is currently getting a whoppin' 14.5 MPG.

303: you're driving someone somewhere when your gas gauge is on empty and they notice when your fuel light comes on an they ask "don't you need to get gas?" and you can say "nah, i'll be good for another week"
