    We just bought a Prius, and we have never owned one before. I am new to Toyota, and am lost at what all this vehicle can do, besides the obvious. We have a sunroof with solar panels, and a Nav.. heated seats, etc. I have played a bit with the nav, but at times the buttons grey out, and I am unable to press them. I am wondering why, or if there is a work around. Is there a place for just a video tutorial. This vehicle is amazing, and I would love to learn all there is to learn!!

    Toyota made it so when the car was in drive that you would not be able to input any directions so the car has to be in park

    prepare fora new way of thinking about a vehicle everytime you go out in it you want to do better than the time before.keep an eye on your consumption it's always better to try and stay under 40 city 65 on the freeway put it in cruise control on the freeway start off slow brake slowly
