    I would like to welcome myself to the world of the Toyota Prius. Traded in a year old SUV that was killing me at 16 mpg for a 2012 Silver Prius Three. Spent the last 3 months shopping and researching about the Prius and landed me a great deal this past weekend. Being a techy myself I cant wait to explore the functions and technology and just plain fun the car has to offer. I am also looking for the challenge that is ahead with the wild terrain that's full of steep hills and valleys that i live around.

    CONGRATS! :rockon:

    Since you got the solar roof option that probably means it still comes with NAV. If so, that means you have about 1,000 pages of instruction manuals to read. OK, easily 1/2 of them are stupid warnings so it's "merely" 500 pages. Have fun! ;)

    I guess you could say i did but it had to go. 65 bills a week on gas was killing me and the worse part was that I was only getting 180 to 200 miles on a tank. I feel bad for the next sucker that buys it and has top deal with it HAHAHA
