    yeah, some of us are hoping to get readouts of the individual tire pressures

    I wonder why they decided to remove the individual tire pressure information from the display, as illustrated in early versions of the user's manual? They did externalize various features that formerly required an OBD-II device, such as headlight delays and door lock/unlock options, but then removed the individual tire information that is in other Toyotas, such as my 2008 Highlander hybrid. :confused:

    Fortunately for me I bought my Mini Laptop with a TV tuner for checking out TV shows while working as a cashier on the late shift at the local grocery store. No longer on the late shift and management frowns on TV watching while on duty. So.....win win....Mini Laptop has a new job!:D

    ok, here's the latest, SOC before charging 30.9% 15 degrees Fwt. EV 2.0 miles
    Charge Complete SOC 85.4% 15 degrees Fwt EV 11.5 miles. Calculated KWH 2.2899. charged car on 1-21-2013 at 5:00pm notice the charge status at half lasted 28 minutes. I think last summer it was ten minutes. 01-21-2013 Charging status with temps at 15 degrees.JPG

    Ghostly! But that's my 2001 video card fault. Visual effects you couldn't recreate if you tried.
