Didn't read the link, but off top I know for a fact that mining for the nickel, that is needed to make the batteries, causes more pollution than the vehicle will create in its lifetime.
Don't think for a second they are going to stop mining nickel because of Toyota Prius....and you should include all the other applications that use nickel or copper...it's going to be used. I did extensive research when buying mine and for every detractor, there are plenty of supporters. I read an article this morning about most of the Prius hate is not actually the car, but the folks that drive them...sort of the old Asian driver stereotype.

Prius cars are the worst. I absolutely hate driving them. I thought the Civic hybrids were much much better to drive.
I tried all of them, including the Honda and I couldn't disagree more...my son's college roommate actually sold his Civic hybrid after comparing them...driving a hybrid is different and I think some folks don't quite understand the difference is how you accelerate one. Took me a couple of weeks to get used to it. Now I don't notice. There's also a considerable difference between the low end Prius and the higher end model. I don't care for the low end one much at all....mine is much better made and more comfortable. Vision is great. I also drive a 4 cyclinder truck that's not a hybrid and gets good gas mileage...the Prius is a much better car than my truck.

I just can't bring myself to want one.

There is another issue... The Prius has a Made in America rating of 1.5 %. This in itself puts it out of the question for me. There is no car wholly "Made in the U.S" but there are many that rate above 80%. Those are the only cars i will ever buy.

To each their own I guess. I just can't stand driving a prius. And I've driven 3 different models. The one civic I drove blew the others out of the water in drivability, guts and performance. But that's just me. I don't hate people that drive a prius, I just am not a fan.
 
I'd hope for like 8-10k at least
problem with any type of game show winnings is like almost 50% tax. so winning that shit car cost him like 11 grand probably. now he has to sell it used cause its not on the lot so it lost 3-4k worth of value immediately, so if it's a 22k car he's out 15k, he might get 6-7k i suppose. i dont know how much a prius is either.
