    I am sure this has been asked, but is there a chart out there, or another way to ID what package your Prius has?

    I bought mine 2nd hand from an individual. Probably the best car purchase ever. Can't begin to calculate how much gas it has saved me. I should have kept records.

    Thanks to all in advance!!

    Welcome to the site. There is a company named Google that provides this thing called a "search engine" for free! If you had searched for "2005 Prius option packages" it would have returned this site: 2005 Toyota Prius - Optional Packages

    Hi Tex. Welcome to PriusChat.

    To identify your option package, take a look at the Prius eBrochure for your model year. The eBrochure will describe all standard equipment and all option packages. Here's a prior post of mine that has links to the eBrochure for each model year:

    Good luck.
