Just want to share photo of my two kids, and why I bought the Prius vs. the Civic Hybrid. also added a pic of my bike.(same gas consumption(almost))

Its been a week and my average consumption is 5.5L/100km for about 500kms.

Is there any mod that will beep the horn to confirm that you locked the car(mine doesn't come with the alarm system). without getting a security alarm system. One thing i find difficult wth my car is to close the hatch and not realizing this could leave my car open in a public parking lot. Also which Pet barrier will fit inside?

Im loving my car and its nice to have a net-community for it. Good day to all

Your kids are better behaved than mine; they try to jump out when the hatch is open. :P


Can you hear a confirmation beep when you lock the door using the keyfob? I think that they all do this. It is not as loud as the horn though.

no, no beep only the lights will confirm it, i was used with my old car with the alarm,
I like the horn beep so whenever i worry that i didnt lock the car, ill just press the key lock and hear it from inside while im inside the house.
Also i need something which will automaticaly lock the door if i forgot it.(does mine should do that?)

I don't know of a horn mod, but maybe someone else will chip in.

I have seen a mod to automatically lock the doors after the car starts moving:

and a thread on it:

Thanks , I have seen that but dont really need that since i dont have kids and i usually automatically close lock my door by habit, maybe i will end up getting security alarm installed.

my dog dont jump out(the net seve as detterent or they just havent discovered it ), but they do like jumping inside, which i like to solve by putting a pet barrier. SO which pet barrier will fit best inside the prius? I was thinking of cutting some plexiglass and using it as barrier but dried dog drool on it would cloud it up easilly.

I haven't tried this, but it might work for you:

One of my dogs travels nicely on the back seat - the other one is very skillful and will eventually end up in the passengers lap.

That's too cute. What do they do during the ride? Just lie down and wait?

OMG I burst out laughing when I saw the OP pic. That is sooo cute. I used to have a German Schnauzer standard growing up and loved that dog! Great pic!
