Default New To New England...

Hello!

Just freshly transplanted from the WEST coast (lived in Ohio for 3 yrs recently) to the extreme EAST coast! Just wanted to say hello and touch base with Prius owners in New England. I live in New Hampshire with my partner and since I see a lot of Prius around here, I thought I'd join the forum for the NE region!

Vince.

Thanks Chris!

I really don't mind the harsh winters. I do miss the ocean though. The weather is getting better and I can't wait to do a lot more driving and exploring of the New England area!

Hopefully, there'll be a Prius get-together soon this Summer!

Vince.

Howdy,
I'm from SW NH and travel to Woburn 60 miles each way. Only had my Prius for a few weeks but so far Im getting 53MPG. Of course going from 1260 feet above sea level in the Monadnock aera to Woburn sure helps on the mileage...

That's great! I only get 42mpg since I have heavier summer wheels on mine now. But, that's still better than your average non-hybrid car of this size.

PS. how come your avatar "Old Blind Hippy" is beating a dog? PETA would be very upset. ;-)

Welcome to New England. I have been to Norwalk a couple of times but otherwise have simply passed through Ohio while rounding deadmans curve.

Keep me posted on any upcoming Prius get-togethers...I'm more than happy to attend (hopefully I won't be on-call).

Vince.
