    Okay, where did he get that steering wheel? Wood and Leather! Wow!

    These guys have the wheel:

    Must be a recent addition. They modify an OEM steering wheel, and you have to send your old one back as a core exchange.

    Who's going to be the first Priuschatter to get one?

    Doesn't buying for economy sort of defeat the purpose when you're paying $4.049 a gallon for full serve in Beverly Hills?

    Gee, what's wrong with a wave? Guess I'm not being cool. I just can't keep up. :(

    I'm still a little annoyed with the "Life in the Slow Lane" stigma. Driving slowly is not a requirement to driving a Prius. Saying as much on tv just promotes that thought.

    Also, his commute must be very short if he refills once a month and averages only 40 MPG.

    I must admit - in OC it seems like every 10th car is a Prius. And they do not wave back anymore . :mellow:

    What I have been noticing is that most of the drivers I see are WOMEN! And I know not all of them are on PriusChat!

    If I see you, I'll wave! Chances are since we're both in the smallest state in the US, we'll pass one another :lol:

    Yeah. Smiling and having something nice to say are pretty high up on the list as well. Didn't you get the memo?

    But it makes for a more dramatic story.

    I'm such an outcast! I drive over the speed limit and don't wave. :(

    Heh, heh! I'm a conflicted former canyon racer who drives briskly, and I've noticed that it startles some people to see a Prius hustling along - but I'll also wave

    Oooh! Oooh! I want one! ... but the drop down says they don't have it for an '06 Prius. :(
