That's funny, the Prius I was in the other day drove completely on the electric motor because of gentle takeoffs and not gunning the throttle and it didn't die in the ass after a few miles.
I drive a prius everyday almost. The electric motor is a joke. Every time I take off from a light or stop sign gently, it feels like I'm being pulled by 5 year old on a tricycle. Why are you making it seem like you need to gun it in order to drain the motor? Using almost anything except feather light acceleration reduces the range dramatically.
As to homeforsummer, you don't actually believe GM was the only reason the EV1 was killed off do you?
