    my name is John, and I'm a Prius owner. Just bought a 2012 Prius Three last night. This forum was invaluable in helping me decide to purchase, and has been a wealth of information in my first hours as a new Prius driver. So just wanted to introduce myself and say thanks! I still have a lot to learn but so far I am very much enjoying it. I've been a long time Saturn fan, owned 3 including a 2006 Ion with over 200,000 miles on it (yeah, I drive a lot!), which unfortunately was totalled in an accident last week. Since Saturn doesn't exist anymore I had to switch it up. I hope Toyota treats me as well as Saturn has.

    Thanks again and I look forward to participating more in this forum in the future.

    Silver, with the solar roof. Would've preferred Winter Grey, but they didn't have any in stock.

    Thanks for the welcome, all!

    I did lurk there some, especially back in '06, but didn't really post at all. I can't promise I'll be much more active in this forum, but I'll try. :D Depends how long the "honeymoon" phase of the new car lasts!

    Haha. Well heres something I noticed; Im over here A LOT more than I ever was at saturnfans. But the reasons I visit either forums are much different - My L's were always giving me problems, or I was getting constant notifications from the forums over at the saturn site of people making threads with all kinds of their broken car issues!

    Over here, I find that Im not posting because Im having constant problems...lol. I dont get constant notifications about others problems either. I usually check in just to make sure the notification system didnt go down because I dont really get a lot of emails from people making threads with all their car problems like over on saturnfans!

    Plus the PriusChat group is much more fun!! :D
