    Ok, mostly db and stuck people drive Prius'. The only prius driver's I've seen around here drive like retards (keep in mind that I live in Portland and there are more stupid drivers there than I care to count).
    No offense intended man :boom:

    I advise you to not visit Southern California then. Drivers in Portland are far better drivers than people in SoCal.

    I've been there and I beg to differ. It rains almost 10 months out of the year, yet when its dry for a week and it rains, there are half a dozen accidents around Portland; this is a pretty consistent event. It's a pretty well known fact in the rest of Oregon.

    Rain and accidents aside, people in Oregon have better road manners and courtesy.

    What is the fascination of putting a diesel in these mid sized trucks? I really don't get it.

    I'd rather them make a damn fuel efficient Taco rather worrying about a diesel.

    I was on the morrison bridge trying to merge to the left lane so I can get onto the 84 and some idiot wouldn't let me in, so i start merging cuz I had just enough room to cut him off. Well, the guy pulls up next to me (driving against on-coming traffic) and he pushes me back in to the left lane. The dumbass had a kid in the back seat to. Road manners my ass. All the Portland drivers I had to deal with are assholes. Keep in mind that the worst part is the Southeast, where I lived.

    Needless to say, I live in La Grande now and traffic consists of 5 cars on the road :)

    Diesels have more power, better fuel milage, you can convert to WVO (You pretty much use vegetable oil as fuel), and the engines last much longer.

    So that's an isolated incident. :p



    Meh whatever, comparing my own personal experiences driving around SoCal for the last 5.5 years and driving around the PacNW, I'd still say drivers up here drive better. :D
