An Internet-based group of Prius owners has gotten wind of some of the public pressure surrounding Toyota's role in trying to thwart state-level clean emissions programs and weaken federal energy legislation.
They're not too pleased about it:
It’s time for Toyota to pull out of the AAM, drop the lawsuit in California and support increases in MPG. Enough of the hypocrisy.
Boycotts by product users tend to be very effective. By the way, it looks like the new energy bill will have 35 mpg CAFE standards but that they will be watered down by vehicle type and won't be required until 2020. Keep the pressure on!
