    Hello guys, just got my new P2 today. Still on the learning curve from driving a non-hybrid vehicle. I was wrestling for a week whether to get a honda or toyota hybrid since a drive a lot of miles. The P2 was at the very top of my limit and was not even sure I could afford to get one. After driving both honda and toyota vehicles, I came to the conclusion that the prius was the better one even though it had a higher price tag. I hope to learn more about this green machine. I have been luring here for a while now just to get some important information and hope to get more from this site. Looking forward in enjoying my green machine. :)

    Really pleased with the vehicle after getting 51mpg today. Ordered OEM foglights and should be installed soon when it gets here. :D

    Congrats! I have had mine a whole 7! days now and absolutely love it!

    I did the whole lurking thing here also and I think it is great that other Prius owners are so willing to share their knowledge and experiences for us new owners!:cheer2:

    Welcome & you made a great choice. Owning a Prius is like joining a club with members who are friendly and willing to share their experiences and knowledge. Fog lights make the road so much brighter during rainy weather at night.
