Your list of dislikes is a joke...but whatever, your opinion.

If this is a good review, then why are we seeing similar "goofiness" here.?

Probably because that goofy windshield wiper quote the OP said, ha

It is also telling that the OP did not respond even to civil questions that I posed about dealer service and alignment...

This is nothing new. I've seen it plenty of times, someone gets on an enthusiasts forum and badmouths what the people on the forum are enthusiastic about. Then they watch as a Jerry Springer-like cat fight ensues.

Seems like there was a term for that... Oh yeah (as plenty have already pointed out) Troll (Internet) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

I think you guys are being too hard on the original troll, er, poster. I myself have the same problem with my windshield wipers rocking the car to-and-fro, ever since I switched to these:

Lets all go to Priuschat.com and make up some phony reviews like this guy. No just kidding. This stuff has been going around for years on car forums. People either jealous of certain cars or just bored and have no friends. If he was for real, he would have defended himself already.

It rained alot yesterday and I went out, turned on the wipers full speed and low speed, and yet to notice the Insight rocking at all. Even turned on the rear wipers as well, along with the front and still no rocking.

Ah, but did you also have 3 friends laughing hard in the car???

OMG it rained today and I turned the wipers on for the first time ever.

The car whipped from side to side so violently that my head bashed against the side window.
Blood splattered everywhere and I couldn't see, so I crashed into a gasoline tanker truck.

There was a huge explosion and 15 school busses full of gifted children on their way to a Mensa convention were instantly vaporized.

But I like the car.
I get great MPG.
