prius envy

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.

My truck gets 15 mpg, while Tommy's Prius gets 50 mpg... Man, I have total prius envy.

prius envy

Something idiots get. They wish that their car was less fuel efficient, less powerful, less fun, less stylish, and much heavier, much more dangerous than a Chevrolet Cobalt.

If Chevrolet can get a seven liter V8 in a Corvette Z06 to do 30+mpg, why do people have prius envy about the 1.5 in the Prius that only gets 42?
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?

Prius Envy

Noun, plural -vies, verb, -vied, -vyΒ·ing.
–noun

a feeling of discontent or covetousness with regard to another person's ownership of a hybrid vehicle; especially those who bought early and scored the coveted limited edition carpool lane stickers.

I'm trying to sell my Expedition before gas goes up to five bucks a gallon; I've got a serious case of prius envy.
