    Curious mind just wants to know.

    For me, I came from a 2008 Lexus LS460. I totalled that car not too long ago and decided to settle with the Prius for a couple years to save money to pay off the house....I now want to be 100% debt free first.

    My02 Prius Gen 1, then a MY04 Prius (Pioneer Package 3) [kept it for 10 years) , then a MY14 Prius Level 4, to what I have now a MY16 Sea Glass ATC/CP level 4. So I have had 4 Prii :)

    The MY02 driving around Austin Tx was a HOOT... Big Oil State and a fuel slipping car (and no I am not a Austin Liberal) .. there was not many around and you had to watch the Toyota Techs.... not many around that knew much about the car.... I moved up after two years to get lift back and the AC that did not run off the belts...

    I wouldn't mind having that sitting next to my Prius too. Although the weather here doesn't help much....
