    Hello all. I've actually been on here a couple weeks, but haven't introduced myself yet. I live in the middle of nowhere in the MO Ozarks and run a farm. I've been driving an older Toyota Tundra, but recently have gotten tired of having $400 - $500 per month fuel bills. Not to mention that's a lot of emissions. Our 2004 Prius is a very lovely addition to our garage. (Not to mention slashing the fuel bill down to $150 per month) So, while others have gone from cars to prius, or Jeeps to Prius, I went from Tundra to Prius. LOL, much wider savings margin there!

    We have a menagerie. We have sheep, goats, chickens, cows, and two alpacas thrown in for good measure. This is why we've been driving a truck for so long, and still do. However we're now doing 75% of our driving in the Prius, which is great.
