A Vanagon is often times a hybrid... runs on gas and diesel (when on the
flatbed tow truck).

Cheers,

Jeff

It was not the Prius comment itself that was a problem. As you might not
have noticed your Prius related posting on April 8 was not commented upon.
The guy you perceived to make have insulted to "Pius" drivers was still on
topic and not telling people the whole world will be a lot better if you
drive a Prius. Whether you agree or not, this moderator interprets that as a
political message. Knowing the poster, it would seem to be the comment was
made tongue in cheek.

It might interest you to know that this moderator has two Prius hybrids in
the family. In fact I'm sitting in one at the moment.
