    hey everyone, new prius c 3 owner here. although it is for my wife. we traded in her 08 pt cruiser. for witch we had traded my 05 f350 v10. i just couldnt take the gas anymore. i seem to be getting along fine without the truck so far. but we both love the prius so far. she does about 95% city driving all the time. we also own an 2001 corolla and is the best car i have ever bought. and was my first toyota. always had american v8 muscle. drove around in a supercharged mustang for about 6 years with 541 hp to the tires:sneaky: .. but im moving on in age these days.. and my needs are different now! i did a drive from brockton ma to essex ma for some fried clams and @ 55 cruise control. i was getting 57-59 mpg friggen unreal maybe about 60-70 miles. i have about 415 miles on the first tank right now with 2 bars left on the tank. anyways looking forward to many years of the prius c and im glad i found this sight here:cool:
