A local Toyota TV ad was pushing Prius Prime (which is not an EV). Yet, it prominently had a white CA hov (car pool lane) sticker shown on the upper right of the TV screen ad (as if the Prius Prime was an EV, which it isn't, its a hybrid which can only have a green CA hov sticker).
You can see the white sticker 7 seconds into their video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNKjDb5UO4A Wouldn't It Be Nice - Prius Prime - 0:17 4 hours ago - Uploaded by Scott Skougard ...

Not a big lie perhaps, but it gives you that bad taste of how sneaky-deceptive automakers are. https://www.google.com/search?q=car+ads+that+lie+to+you For EVLN EV-newswire posts use: http://evdl.org/evln/ {brucedp.neocities.org} -- Sent from: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/ _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
