    Lots of you reached this point years ago, but I'm proud to say this is my 5,000th post on PriusChat! About 5 1/2 years I started this site as a way to kill some time and connect with people who shared similar interests with me. I'm so proud that in the relatively short time that this site has been up, it's grown to over 50,000 members and is the largest hybrid-related site in the world.

    It's a testament to the community that there are 14 people who have MORE posts than I do - 5 of which have almost 10,000 posts or more. It's an even greater testament to the strength of this community that I only account for 1.68% of the 840,000 total number of posts.

    I'm looking forward to making the next 5,000 posts, but I'm more looking forward to the next 840,000 community posts! Thanks for making this site an awesome place to hang-out everyday and work!

    Are you a new member here?
    Congrats Danny, I know you were the dominant poster for a year or two and then you handed off the bulk of the posting to a few others and now look at the place!

    I'm fairly new to all this, that is an incredible amount of posts. My first thought was similar to Hyo Silver, but maybe this is a big part of your life. We look forward to your next 5,000.

    What are you trying to say Bev?

    Good on ya Danny, now you can call yourself a senior member! :rofl:

    Thanks for starting and building such a great site mate. I have only been coming here for 2 years but PriusChat is a very big part of my life. If not for your hard work I would never have met all the wonderful people at PCD and I wouldn't have this fantastic on line community to share and celebrate with.

    I'm looking forward to your next 5000 posts and being part of PriusChat while it grows during that time. cheers!:whoo::bolt:

    Yeah but you still account for only 0.002% of the population so keep in line or I'll have to ban your butt!

    Ooh, I just noticed I past that about 395 posts ago. Some of my posts were actually worthwhile, too (and I can tell you where both of them are)!
