    Hello! Just joined after getting my first Prius about four months back....only to have someone try to make it across the road in front of me in their car. Totaled the Prius. My poor, four-month old Blue Prius III. However, airbags deployed like a champion! Super safe. No injuries to anyone. Three days later, we're driving the exact same car. 2011 Blue III. Love it!

    WoW, Glad No One Was Hurt! I guess Once You Go Prius - You Never Go Back. Good Luck with your new ride!

    We really couldn't have asked for two better cars to get into an accident with! We had the Prius. The other driver was in a Volvo. 45 mph impact. Not a single injury. Amazing....AND a new Prius!

    I did, as a matter of fact. So sad. We only had her for four months!

    I am very glad no one was hurt. To me, it looks like your Prius held together better than that Volvo. :eek:
    We are all glad we drive such well put together cars!
