You make me laugh. I think that 'so there' is a perfectly reasonable argument, followed with "Because I said so" and "Na na na na na na naaaahhhh... I can't HEAR you!" while those fingers are in your ears. :)

Re: My wife wants to steal my car
Just an update--I know you were all on the edge of your seats waiting. Since my wife drives farther she's getting a full mpg better than I was. I didn't get any better than 35.1 and she's getting 36.2 (based upon the vehicle display). --benny

Re: My wife wants to steal my car
Good for her! Sorry you ended up losing out on getting to drive the car, though. :(

Re: My wife wants to steal my car
Another update. She's up to 38 mpg measured out of the tank. The dial says 39 mpg. Now she doesn't like me to drive it because she says that I screw up her milage!
She drives 30 miles per day, most of it on flat surfaces, driving our daughter to and from school. She spends a lot of time coasting, and has gotten the pulse/glide thing down really well. She also hardly ever uses the A/C Benny |
Re: My wife wants to steal my car
I think you guys are doing it all wrong! I told my wife about the computers that run the car, the pulse and glide thing, and just about everything technical feature in the car I could think of, and now she doesn't want to drive it (she's intimidated).
It means I have to drive her more places, but I like to drive the TCH anyway! ;) |
Re: My wife wants to steal my car
Don't forget to tell her to keep an eye on the halogen fluid-level too!

Re: My wife wants to steal my car
Well Benny you blew your chance to tell her about the "10-15k special break in period" on hybrids - that you of course, would have been best qualified to perform.
Thats my story to my Wife - for any new hybrid we buy - and Im sticking to it. |
Re: My wife wants to steal my car
I think the halogen fluid level is a good one! I haven't checked those levels for a awhile. I will try to explain that to my wife!
