    Hi everyone, I just purchased a G3 Prius option 3 with solar and navigation. I traded in my Expedition and am excited about my new car. I'm a little overwhelmed by all the bells and whistles but hope to get it all figured out soon. I'm already wanting to go accessory shopping! Is a hood deflector a good idea? Can I order one here?

    Congrats! Welcome on board!

    I too was overwhelmed by all the gadgets on my 2nd gen Prius which had all the options available (at the time) except leather. You've got even more. :)

    I think you'll really enjoy the mileage and how little you'll end up paying at the pump vs. the Expedition. Even if you don't come close to EPA #s, the savings will be huge.

    Qwerdna, I was getting an average of 12 MPG with my Expedition!!! So I am really looking forward to the change. ; )
