Haven't been to Ikea in years - I went today and found this....grinned ear to ear and took my space

That prius looks scared, the 335D is the big boy at those parking spots, I would love to see all the spots filled with BMW 335d, and see a prius owner get a manger call the police and look like a total ass, not that the car does that to them already...

I wish we could use the carpool lanes.

That grin may fade when you get back to your car and there is a big dent in your door suspiciously shaped like the outer edge of a prius door. I wouldnt park anywhere near prius owners.

They actually have these spots in the rest areas on the Florida turnpike. I parked next to an escalade "hybrid"

Love it

Am thinking about garaging the D and reserving it for track and trips, and buying a Prius C. If stickers weren't anathema to me I'd put one of each car that said "My other car is a BMW (or Prius)". For some reason that is an amusing thought to me, and probably me alone.

That's amazing, it's the first time I've seen that sign say diesel.

Europeans know what's up.

iaknown · 08-01-2014, 05:03 PM

Very cool....but if they knew what was good for them, below the diesel it would say "with dpf and egr still installed"

I can just see Larry the cable guy parking in an F350 4x4 with power stroke with stack pipes sticking up out of bed complete with get-r-dun sticker

Well, it would still be fuel efficient in comparison to the f350 with the v10

23mpg for that beast is actually pretty amazing. I don't think the quotes are warranted.
