I bought a new barcelona red Prius 4, with the navigation and solar roof package on November 29th. I just found this website and have enjoyed learning much more about my new toy. So far I love the Prius. It does take a little getting use to, since I previously was driving a Lexus RX 330. The gas mileage has been about what I expected given the cold weather we are having in Olympia, Washington. Averaging about 47 (calculated) around town and over 50 on a trip to Canada. I did find that there was a real drop off in the mileage when I went from 60 mph to 70 mph. Hopefully, when I get more accustomed to driving the Prius and the weather warms up, the mileage will be even better.
Welcome! Im a new owner as well. Just picked up my car November as well. I love Washington, what a great state, dreaming of a home on one of the San Jaun Islands
Congrats!. Just got a used '10 Prius IV solar and nav myself yesterday. What excited me was the nav lady voice. Although it sounds more robotic, I can actually understand the nav lady better than my gen 2 Prius nav systems, where the nav lady's "left" and "right" were so muffled, they sounded just alike. Although I am probably not as excited as you, having owned several Prius in the past, this car will be a long term keeper for my wife and I.
