715) You're upset because you only get 41mpgs while driving on the highway at 80mph.

716) You wonder what it would really take to put the engine and IMA into a S2000 so you can have a hybrid roadster.

I only glare at the Prius drivers that pass me real fast They bought a Prius only to look good, not because they care. (Though its better for Prius's to zip by me than Excursions!...)

719) your trip to and from Hybridfest is also part of a tire experiment.

720) you laugh at yourself for being the second hybrid owner you know who changes their tires using a small floor jack, cross-over and torque wrench that you just happen to carry around in the car. (thanks Doug!)

721) you've always known some like pecan or peach pie and others like apple and lemon pie but we all like pie and only get to drive one hybrid at a time.
