[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have the soul of a BMW driver, trapped inside a Prius. [/quote] It's funny. There was a study a few years ago that purported to prove that luxury car drivers really were bigger jerks. Researchers tracked whether cars snuck out of lane and whether they stopped for pedestrians at crosswalks, then scored the vehicle on luxury status. It turns out people with more expensive cars are less respectful drivers. The sole non-luxury car that scored poorly was the Prius. He researchers hypothesized that since it was California, the Prius was a status symbol car despite its price. So anyhow, maybe there's more truth to what you're saying than you realize.[/quote] Prius is definitely a status car in SF (lots of Silicon Valley types drive them) and parts of LA (there was a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode where all Larry's Hollywood friends drove them, making those that did not drive them feel ashamed.)
