Apparently, two weeks ago,
West Wing actors mentioned the Prius 10 times during the
course of the popular NBC sitcom. The show apparently
took on the conflict Americans have with their love-hate
relationship with gas-guzzling vehicles.
Essentially, the show endorsed buying a Prius as the
best course of action American's can take to deal with
the world's oil crisis.
Well, we agree.
The only other
interesting side note, Mr. Smith points out, is that the
hybrid movement is synonymous with the Prius. Because of
this, Smith states, "When everybody talks about you
as though you're the only game in town, before long, you
are."
Well, the truth is, the Prius is the only game in town.
The only other full hybrid available is the Ford
Escape hybrid, which is barely available. Only the Honda
Accord hybrid, which is more of a Medium - somewhere
between a Mild and a Full - provides some level of
competition to the Prius.
