I've had my throttle get suck 3 or more times and I'm still here. A few times was with the old 800 vacuum hosed carb (some hooked up wrong) and once when I added a one of those long springs so I could have more resistance in the pedal.

Fucking GTAIV that bitch and jumped the fuck out.

Some enthusiasts enjoy using "Prii" as the plural, which would be correct if "prius" were a regular second declension Latin noun. The actual Latin plural of the adjective is "priora" (Reference [95] is slightly in error here). All of these forms are nominative case and there are several other forms for the other cases. As for the plural of "Prius" in English, Toyota has said that it is simply "Prius" and also that owners are welcome to use whatever they like.

Because of your affinity for proper English. That is a pretty lean category to choose from... have you read some of the posts here?

Fair enough. I'm guilty of it myself, but I've gotten WAY better about not cringing when I read the posts.

I don't really like Wikipedia for that fact though. You never know if that shit's real!
