Had it with these gas prices... Going green!




So with the rise in gas prices I decided to convert to the hybrid side! Actual mileage, 0 mpg gain. Mental satisfaction, at least 1-2 mph gain!!!

Had it with these gas prices... Going green!

Had it with these gas prices... Going green!

Had it with these gas prices... Going green!

Go Green!

O! and I joined the aFe Club!

If I saw you on the road I would probably follow you just to try and figure out what the heck it was that you were driving haha. Looks good!



slight hijack: your rear garnish behind the 4Runner Emblem looks great! How did you black it out? Paint/Vinyl/PlastiDip?

You beat me to it. I was going to do the exact same thing. Maybe I'll get a Prius logo and put that on mine instead.

Only had it in for a couple of days so far but it's true to what other's have reported on here. Slightly better response and better sound but not obnoxious. Haven't been able to notice much of anything else since it hasn't been in long enough. Hoping we get some more snow up at Mammoth so I can test it out on a long drive.

I avg about $250 a month and since gas is rising... ($4.39 last night) 1-1.5k miles monthly.
