Is the Toyota Prius Really Green.


I really get annoyed by a lot of this feel good "green" stuff. Have you read the energy analysis that said that it takes 113,000,000 BTU to build a Toyota Prius (mostly because of the 30# of Nickle in the battery). Since gasoline has about 113,000 BTU/gallon, a Prius actually clocks up 1,000 gallons usage before it even rolls off the lot. Yeah, that's got to be green....


Go Green is just a another marketing tool for car companies and politicians
