Don't worry, he's posted many things even less readable in the other honda hybrids forum.

But that last takes the cake for unreadable and (apparently?) off-topic.

1C is apropros

The Leaf gets about 0.4 kWh per mile, so he would be driving 110 miles each day. Sounds plausible. My insight would burn $138/month on that same work schedule.
Yea I was thrown off with what he told me but Prices are High here, didn't check but I think it's 1.45 a Kw and gas is about 4.10 coming down. unless you have a home solar system it's not a huge advantage. Too much batteries to charge, I made the decision not to get a solar pruis or a kit (it's online) and stay with the hh1 for a few more years still in very good condition one owner, and see if I can make the front a better air flow and better looking, just a side activities or daily hobbie.

Normally I don't nitpick people's typos or mis-spellings, especially since people started typing with their thumbs on teeny-tiny phones, but your attitude is pretty poor. You say we're elitist Democrats or Republicans and that you are a successful day trader. Cool!

Now imagine how successful you'd be if people understood what you were saying. That is the point of communication.

It' was for jellybean, if he was truthful he would say he disagree or didn't understand what I said about your link honda new hybrid article "anything about the hybrid " would have counter the obvious he didn't read the the article, and he blame it on me, by attacking my writing implying Iam dumb. Hence I got angry I apologize. I was making a point grammar isn't everything to someone who think it does.

And about that article? read it carefully, what quoted this " " above is what real and that what fax from the original release the rest isn't golden as most democrats ( left brain thinking) believe t it's what the writer taught up, here the writer implying that honda has a nutty engineer and losing it. because of a first release data saying it's has a cvt tramission, that is why I said it's 8 months ahead proto type it's decoy city. So auto manufacture couldn't copy and release it first.

it has no tranmission same as the engineer said. it direct drive 1 to 1 final drive in highway driving, a transmission is multiplication of engine power for below 4 gear,not needed design right. it's has a electric motor to power the 1-3 gears now, and the engine without a tramission can now have a larger electric motor to power and charge giving back 10 % mpg in it's place. So Honda did it as they said and did get civic mpg from a mid size car.

Oh... not a Democrat either, that's the first time I've been accused of being one

No hard feeling, passed, never was good with words, as long as you understand news and related events and forecast target are "price in" or "priced out" of the market before biding start ( nothing is under valued as of now) and tiny company like fish follow their sectors leaders As above on a Gage of strength, you understand part of the core of the market.
funny, only democrats from the education sector care to mention about correct wording. it's hurts their back ground.

Default A point on which the Insight wins the Prius

- A point on which the Insight wins the Prius, even at the points (as happens in many things backwards)

- To those who tell you that 'better a Golf that is safer' you can say that about naaaaaa.

- Honda has really taken a hybrid for everyone but also safe for all.

Prove that you aren't a robot - this post makes no sense and I'm ready to flag you as a spammer.

If your the other contapated, they is that pink bottle.
This has to be some of the best trolling I have seen in a while. Because the only alternatives are someone who really has zero grasp of written English or and ESL person trying to pass as being raised in and English speaking household.
