NOVA Prius Owners

I sure see a large parade of Prii on the 395 every morning! Where are all you Prius owners in the DC Northern VA area? Are you out there?

What time do you hit the road, and where?

My wife and I commute from Dale City to Capitol Hill, getting on I-95 HOV at the Horner Road Commuter lot just before 6:00, so I can get to work by 6:30. In the evening, we leave from Crystal City (my wife works there, and parks the Prius there) and enter HOV at the Pentagon around 3:45 or so.

There are a lot of us NOVA/DC/MD Prius drivers, but they're so common around here we don't feel very special. I see a lot of people on the boards, but this forum doesn't get much traffic and the get-togethers we've tried to plan in the past have fallen through. I'd still be up for them.

And I'm an ex-NoVA person, but would certainly be up for any get togethers.

I live in Richmond now, and see Prii around here all the time...never any posts, though!! sniff...

I'm one of them, I get on 395 at King Street and then get off at Glebe to go to Crystal City.

My little super white baby gets terrific mileage on that downhill stretch. I got it in November 2005 and have a little over 4200 miles on it. Alas, going the other way in the evenings I get about 37 mpg.

I love the light August traffic. Soon it will be September and school will be in and everyone will be back from vacation and the traffic will get heavy again.

I'm seeing more Prii all the time and also the other hybrids, the hondas. Someone that works in the same building I do told me they just bought the Civic hybrid.

Not if you got that car after July 1st. The time limit to get new Clean Special Fuel
plates that you can HOV on 95/395 expired then.
