To be envious of another's Toyota Prius; to long for high MPG when the price of gas gets higher and higher; to want a Prius; the pain you feel when you see a Prius, don't know the owner but are jealous of them.

The mental disorder suffered by prius drivers who lost in their own smug self-righeousness completely overlook that they drive a car as gutless, vanilla and overrated as they infact are.

If Chevrolet can get 50 mpg out of a 2.2 liter engine in a Cobalt, why do people have prius envy about the 1.5 in the Prius that only gets 42?
