[ARCHIVED THREAD] - How do I look cool in a Toyota Prius? (Page 1 of 3)

Posted: 11/27/2012 5:24:09 PM EDT

Currently, I have a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland with a Hemi and I get about $2k a month in car reimbursements and mileage.

Now I am deemed as a high mileage driver and my Jeep is not "Eco Friendly" and they are getting me a company car Toyota Prius instead, all expenses paid and my wife can drive it too.

Seriously I am torn...I will have to tint my windows to not look too gay

What's the issue with identity crisis ?

You are getting a free car to drive and you can save your own ride from wear and tear.

well, actually i was making extra money with driving my personal car - in the past i've had company cars for over 10 years, but when i was given the choice last year i jumped at the chance to get what i really wanted - they even gave me a nice stipend to buy a car

To be honest, Grand Cherokees look kinda gay.

Wife had one for a few years. Impossible to be within 5 feet of that car and not look ghey. You gotta be comfortable with your manhood to pilot one of those...

ETA: that car was so gay my black lab tried to kill it in the driveway one day. He did $4400 worth of damage to it with his teeth. All I could do was laugh

Set it on fire?

In all seriousness, get a company Civic before a Prius.

Or, just make it all electric with some kickass motor and lots of battery and go Supercar hunting for pink slips at stoplights and track days.

(like this guy: OPB: Oregon Field Guide)

Free car, great gas mileage. At 61, 2 tours in Nam, hung like a shetland pony. I would be damn proud to have a free ride. Fuck all the haters that have no balls

and worried about their ego.

My AO is loaded with Prius vehicles. The only way to save yourself is to tint the windows (paint may help). You'll have to be a little more selective where you go.

Sorry.

Off road lighting. A ski rack. Moose antlers on top. Those missile balloons that you tie onto the back of your car. No diesel Jetta option? At least those get 50ish per gallon and do not have batteries to service and replace in a few years.

Step 1 - Create "And my wife can drive it too LLC", DBA: armoredsaint Taxi Service
Step 2 - Hire your wife as a driver
Step 3 - ???
Step 4 - You keep on driving your Jeep for work.

Big wheels, low pro tires, carbon fiber hood and giant chrome muffler tip?

Larue "Extremeley Right Wing" bumper sticker?

Seriously, you can't look "cool" in a Prius

This ^.

If you really can't afford to be seen in it, tint the windows, get a ballcap and dark sunglasses.

Aside from that, I have been passed by more Priuses that I've passed, and I don't drive like a grandpa. And, I've not yet noticed one on the side of the road with the blue light special. I don't know if they have hidden stealth technology or what, but some people drive the piss out of them and yet don't seem to get tickets as far as I have seen.

Enjoy the ride. It's free, so what's not to like? They aren't making you drive a Pontiac Aztek or a Nissan Cube, so just drive.

ETA: If all else fails, get one of those "my other car is a BMW ..." stickers and carry on. (maybe "my real car is a BMW ...")

Priuses go 250K as taxis and don't need batteries replaced. Mine's got 180K on it, and runs like a dream. Best car I ever owned.

It's a douche car. They look like shit and douchebags drive them.

I wouldn't drive it. Can you turn it in for a milage option?
