Exactly..... the neon is built for extreme aerodynamics which allows it to go faster than the speed of light!!!!!

it might just me, but i laughed when they mentioned "prius" and "uncontrollable acceleration" in the same sentence i was lauging pretty hard.

Did you know that last year Toyota recalled more vehicles than they produced? Or that the Tundra leads the pickup market in recalls?

I am thinking it wasn't uncontrallable as in tough for a person to handle, rather there was no way to control it, like the accellerator or brakes not working. Kinda like "The goggles, they do nothing!" :mrgreen:
