    Just purchased my 2010 Prius II this week, and am loving it. It was a hard decision, especially since my old car (2000 Honda Civic hatchback) was totaled when a drunk driver hit it in my neighborhood parking lot. It was my first and only car, and I took really great care of it.

    I will say that the Prius feels like a spaceship compared to my old Civic. But I love the technology and engineering. I'm still on my first tank of gas, but I'm already averaging above 50 MPG. What a great feeling!

    Looking forward to participating in this community.
