How about growing a pair before driving a Cruz.
There is something sexy about a guy in a pick up. (or is that just me?)
In composted soil, no doubt.
Electric cars are NOT zero pollution. They merely redirect their pollution from the exhaust pipe to the electrical generation station (in the USA this is probably coal).
And hybrids should post their SPM rating (Smugs Per Mile).
I drive an H3 (used...wouldn’t buy new from GM). Not THE manliest vehicle but I love the glares I get just from the idea of a hummer from a Prius driver.
A pickup truck is a vehicle originally designed for men who work with their hands and have to frequently carry large loads. The bed of the truck used to be able to carry a 4 x 8 foot sheet of plywood. In many pickups these days, the bed has been shortened to make room for extended cabs leaving barely any room for a load of furniture or firewood or compost or whatever. Today men with office jobs use pickups as a kind of pseudo symbol of masculinity.
I know I am painting with a broad brush here, but, I think this is an example of symbolism over substance. For me, a vehicle is a thing to get me from point A to point B with reasonable safety and comfort. I don’t “get” those who see it as an extension of their personality, politics, or manliness.
My wife was driving my 3/4 ton GMC Sierra Duramax truck in Denver with our daughter and 2 year old grandson and was screamed at by one of Denvers finest girly men because of a
MCCain and retired army sticker. “He” yelled f—k you and f—MCCain. I have a MOntana license plate and little did he realize that a lot of Montana trucks have a 357 in the glove box. She held her cool and did not do what I would have done. Of course if I was driving, he would have never yelled. He was an example of Denvers finest “male” residents.
Be a man first. Then pick your vehicle.
The trappings of manliness are not a substitute for it.
Join the Pritard ranks? No thx.
I drive a Prius because it fits my needs.
I didn’t realize I had to buy a car that effectively reinforced how much of a “tough guy” I am.
It also never occurred to me that others would demand I “have a talk with myself.” (Aside: what am I supposed to say to myself exactly? I’m pretty busy.)
That said, I have absolutely zero animus towards anyone who chooses to drive a truck or SUV, and I don’t support the government’s efforts to bribe people into buying this or that vehicle.
See, I support free markets and respecting individual choices.
I didn’t realize that would be so controversial on a conservative site.
LOL. I think he just destroyed the Prissus.
You can drive a Prius, sure,” the star of Fast Five told FOX411s Pop Tarts column. But you should also grow testicles before that.”
A REAL MAN drives anything he dam#n well pleases.
If it had fit my needs, I would have bought a Prius. The tech is really neat. Toyota’s solution to the hybrid design is one of the better ones out there, and works well. However, my half-ton Suburban was better for me in TX, where I needed to drive to Denver a couple of times a month, and needed to be able to haul large objects.
Would Steve McQueen drive a Prius?
‘nuff said.
I’ve met the Rock in person, he worked out sometimes at my local Gym. The guy is for real, the nicest celeb I have ever met.
He’s right wouldn’t be caught dead in one of those
Who am I to argue with Dwayne.......
Fail,this chick digs any dodge with a Hemi.
