New Prius Owner

George2006 · 04-22-2008, 08:36 PM

Hi all,

I just purchased my first Prius 8 days ago, a certified 2006, pkg 7, with 31,000 miles. I didn't trade anything, I just wanted something with good fuel economy. I'm on my third tank of gas already, and I'm getting 45 & 46 MPG. Good enough to keep me happy. Sure beats the 12 & 13 I get with my V8 Dodge Dakota.

I'm sure I'll find a lot of things I have questions about, which I'll post. For now, is there some way to turn off the back-up beeping alarm?

Thanks
