i don't see too many around my area, but i don't cover a lot of road on the average... i'm probably going to get some kind of (negative?) award for the Oldest Prius with the Least Mileage... still haven't had to refill the tank, and have just put the 419th or so mile on the first tank......

BUT....... today.... oops, yesterday the 19th, i wish i had my digital camera with me... you'll love this....

i pulled into the Safeway parking lot off Stevens Creek Boulevard (i think that's Santa Clara, there... it's always confusing to me...)... and saw a silver '04! just like mine !!! the license plate ring was from Stevens Creek Toyota, just a few miles east of the sighting.

so i parked next to it. nearly identical twins.

when i came out of Safeway, it was still there, and from the lights on the front, i got that it's also a BC/#9....

license plate was 5FLZ390 or something close to that.. i think i got two of the letters and/or numbers wrong.. but that's close.

this is exactly the model, color and option package i'd ordered from that dealer, but canceled after i found the one i bought a month+ ago in Fremont!!!!!

now, i think that's pretty neat!

Silver B model (Canadian) and a young couple gets' out and she say's "I like your car" So it sounded stupid but I said " I like your car too" His first our third.

Flying down the 405 yesterday, I came up on a silver 04. We cruized for awhile looking like a Prius commercial while a Jeep Cherokee with a big "
Go Green" bumper sticker stared on. Flashed the peace sign as I hopped onto the HOV (with wife and kids in tote.....of course) and got a peace back!

Saw a couple of white Prii on the 241 toll road and on Jamboree by Santiago Canyon Road. Hopefully, I'll be able to make it to one of the local gatherings so I can meet some of these people in the OC area!

I still have yet to see a single Prius, classic or otherwise, in my neck of the woods. If it wasn't for this site, I'd think someone sent me snipe hunting.

Saw a beautiful Seaside Pearl 04 in the parking lot of our local Lowe's yesterday. It was really nice looking. It made our wait seem even longer...when will our car come in

This spring, I saw 3 or 4 here in Norman (a few 03s and a few 04s), but have not seen them recently.

Default embarrrassing, but cool

My wife recently had knee surgery, so I dropped her off and parked. When we walked out of Kohl's I looked across the lot and saw my Prius. We walked up to it and a nice little old lady following behind us asked what we were doing as I went to grab the door handle. IT WASN'T MY PRIUS ops: . Mine was 3 cars down.

As few of these cars as I've seen around, I thought it would be years before I would have a chance of making that mistake.
