    I have had my car for just over two weeks and have not even opened the hood yet.
    I can't tell--I am a total newbie too. But I am very impressed with the Prius.

    I understand now. Your screen with the battery and bars looks exactly like mine.
    One more bar and it changes from blue to green.

    I was able to download an owners manual--mine did not come with one.

    that's my '04! (just kidding, my neighbor bought it from us) screen looks normal. it can go from 2 purple bars to full green bars, but should typically hover around 4-6 blue.

    This car has leather but no navigation or hid headlights... Strange. Does it have a smart key?

    I can imagine. If you do decide to make the trek, be sure to call and schedule to make sure he'll be there. He normally is, but I'd hate for you to make the drive and find out he's gone to an auction or something.

    If it has hid, it should have fog lights.

    It's best you don't have the hid, it's very problematic and expensive to replace bulbs
