    Hi All,

    Just found this Forum today as I was searching about various things about my 2006 Prius.

    Bought the car about 3 weeks ago and so far am loving every minute of it.

    OK, I don't usually LOVE cars but this thing has changed me... I see all those people out there driving their GAS HOGS and I look at them and think, "Eat your heart out buddy", pretty soon you won't be able to afford the fuel for that thing and I am getting 44 mpg RIGHT NOW!

    Alright, I better control myself or you folks will think I've lost my mind or something.

    Anyway, nice to be here and I hope to learn a lot from many of you here. It seems like I am always looking for answers to certain questions I have and it is nice to see a forum just for Prius owners.

    I hope to be able to contribute to the forum as well. I have a lot to learn about this Hybrid car but I am really enjoying our car right now.

    Put a real nice speaker and amp system in the car. Damn it sounds good but I know I will need to have the car running to run the power.

    Also put some real nice Michelin Destiny Tires on it from Discount Tire. I also have a set on my Gas Hog 1997 Lincoln Town Car. They are great tires.

    Just ordered some nice seat covers from GT so our little doggie won't ruin anything.

    Next is going to be "Serius" Radio so I can have satellite stations as my radio now does not pick up stations very well and I am not sure why.

    I am considering adding HHO (Hydrogen) in the near future as I would really like to get over 50 mpg. I am sure a lot of you are already getting over 50 but I don't and I am totally Jealous. I have been researching HHO for some time and found an outstanding system.

    Anyway, thanks for reading and happy driving! :)
