Wait a minute....so you can't park a Prius in a garage?

If it will fire up on its own and run for a while keeping it in an enclosed garage strikes me as a pretty bad idea. I'm not trying to call out the person who posted that but I would have thought I'd have heard about this "feature" before now.

Goof2, they don't do that.

Oops.

Oh well. Bus to hell, ticket for one, please.

Top Gear is one of my fav shows. The guys make fun of almost all cars, but here the point is made. Nissan has a great idea, and it may be ok for cities where there are lots of plugs, but, in general, it's a little too early to think it will catch on everyone.
