Someday, yes.
I have noticed quite a few Prius drivers in my immediate area...more so now than before. Went to a local A&P supermarket and parked right next to one. Then, went to another place and parked my car and noticed 3 others, obviously not yet Priuschat members.

With the creation of local groups, I am looking for members in an around the Albany area. By creating a list of people who are willing to travel in and around the Capital District, arraigning meetings will be easier. please post your location, and we'll see you at a get together soon.

Hi!
Long time listener, first time caller.
I'm in Hudson, NY. Bought my sexy black 2007 Touring model in July.
Would like to join your gang.
Interested in hearing any ideas on how to make my steering wheel position more comfortable?
I would also be interested in a demonstration of proper Prius driving techniques.

Steering wheel; Have you been able to adjust it at all. I found you have to pull the release HARD to get it to give. If the adjustment doesn't fix it, then consider seat cushions to adjust your seating position. There are a number of them in varying configurations; the trick is finding the right one for your body.

Driving techniques: I can show you Pulse and Glide; most of the rest you can find at Clean MPG. I live in New Paltz, work in Kingston. Would be glad to meet you half way some day for a demo.

Anyone want to join our little group?

I live in on Lake Saratoga. But I work out of my home as a writer and sustainability consultant. So unfortunately I never go into Albany, except to go to the airport about every month or two. But if you're having a Prius owners meeting, I'll try to make it.

I live in Middletown, NY. Would come up if the meet ups prove to be usefull.

Has anyone on this tread gone to New Country Toyota in Saratoga Springs? I've just moved here and plan to get my car serviced there. Their oil change service seems a little expensive at $80. Has anyone gone there? Do they do good work and charge fair prices?

Thanks for the info!

Well I'm a wanna be, wanna be a Prius owner.
I hail from Newburgh, New York.
Maybe a Downstate Club is in order?
I'm a knuckle buster type, so I'm sure my Prius will undergo a few mods if and when we get one.

AOV and NYPrius1, who did you folks deal with and at what dealership?
I'm thinking of going to Toyota of Newburgh..
