Waiting for the Toyota press conference like a “Lost” zombie waiting for a new episode!  Can’t believe how much of the press just bought into that guy’s “runaway Prius” story with NO skepticism and never even using words like “allegedly” regarding his claim.  I especially like how Michael Fumento tried the “reach down and pull the gas pedal” thing and found it unreachable (much less at 90mph) and Car and Driver tested the “brakes vs. acceleration” with a 540hp Mustang and it stopped in less than 1000ft!  Where has integrity in journalism gone?  Almost wish I were in the market for a car now, ’cause great new Toyotas are goin’ DIRT CHEAP.
