When Deb took the car to work the other day, we actually got into an argument. Seems she needs to learn Hybrid 101!!!

663) Your passengers point out the gas indicator is 'blinking' and you casually tap it and say "Huh, what do you know?"

Great thread ! Thanks for the read.
Its funny how at first you look at hybrid owners as weird (when you are not one), but now as one... you feel like you are 1up on everyone else.

664) Reading "Most Obscure Prius Facts (Way out there)" is considered great entertainment and you know where to find it.

Re: You know you're a real hybrid owner when...
(665) You & your friends leave to go somewhere at the same time via the freeway, they can't figure out where you are when they arrive (Cause I am known for driving fast). When I arrive a couple minutes after them, my response is "I am more concerned these days with seeing 70 on my MPG display than my speedo but I only got 68.5 for this trip". They respond "OH BOB!!!!"

666) You are having a nice conversation with the hybrid driver in the next lane when crossing traffic noise drowns you both out . . . and you both smile and roll up your windows.
