(i.e. the cuteness, though let it by noted that by "cute" i do NOT mean to imply "little"). i was going to make a comment about cars running on vegetable oil, but they are at least as noisy, *and* they smell like french fries. though, that might be how they get you, because first you hear the engine and know to look out (and i'm sure will, like any experienced diesel driver, would be able to identify the diesel engine by its distinctive hum), but then you smell the french fries and *forget* to look out, 'cause you're like, "hey, french fries!" and then you get hit. so you can tell him that, too. but don't tell him i told you to tell him, since i'm sure he'd be quick to inform me that *i'm* not part of that conversation, either. it hurts!!

I think we might be a good match. :) I told John the whole story and before I got to my hybrid suggestion john said, “you know hybrids don’t make any noise when pulling out of parking spaces.” I think we might be a good match. :)

That's hilarious. Seriously. How you keep a straight face around those two, I'll never know. I wanted to give you some fuel for your argument, should you find yourself in this particular situation again. You can always tell him that in today's day and age of hybrid cars, you never can tell if a car is running. The hybrid cars, pulling our of a parking space, run on the electric motor portion of the hyrbid and are therefore silent. Armed with this new info, you can win the argument and get him interested in new technologies :) love you. OMG! That’s hilarious. Seriously.
