if you're on the fence about buying an 08 due to the ridicuous costs of fuel, or (like me) don't like making the middle east filthy rich, offset your dependency of foreign oil w/the purchase of a motorcycle.
you can buy a 2008 ninja 250 for 3500 bucks & it gets 75mpg (if you want to be a total penny-pinching miser) or get a bad a$$ sports bike & still get 40mpg. my ducati 1098 & yamaha r1 each get 40+ MPG & they do 180mph. best yet r1s are only 11k!!!
screw the dorky prius. i'll conform & get a super fuel saving auto when somebody makes one that doesn't make you look like a tool. the prius ain't a bad car, but it's just so freakin HIDEOUS. i think it's propelled by the testosterone that it leeches out of your body while you drive it!
motorcycles are so much fun to drive, weather permitting.
plus, with so many heavily discounted vipers avail on ebay, you are more or less getting the motorcycle for FREE (or at least that's how you can explain it to your wife)
think about it this way, if you drive your motorcycle for 3000 miles & get 75mpg & then your viper 1000 miles @ 20 mpg. you're averaging just over 61mpg overall! take that prius!
the moral here, buy a new viper, get a free motorcycle, stimulate the economy, save the planet.
