Default Scratch the hemi swap, i want a prius motor swap !

P1 "what engine u running? that thing sounds really efficient" P2 - "yea its the AEV prius conversion" P1 - "man thats sick!, wish i could drop one of those bad boys in my rig. i mean a man can dream".

Where are you that gas is $5 a gallon? I'm in SoCal and regular is $4.17-4.25 a gallon.
My Jeep already feels like a brick in the wind we have hear. With a Prius motor, I don't think it could get out of it's own way!

Seeing as how I'm not willing to give those 2 up either I may end up having to rent it!
