Welcome and congratulations on your new car and having kept your manhood intact I am continuously amazed by the perception of what people think is the standard profile of a Prius owner !

 

Congrats on the Prius purchase. No need to worry about threats to manhood - PWR mode is still there when needed.

 

I'll jump in on this thread as I traded a 14.1 MPG Armada (07) for a 2012 Prius Four with Moonroof / Nav package. I'm incredibly happy with this car so far. Thanks to all of you who have posted so much useful information. I've been snooping around here for about a month and really felt like I am better equipped as a new owner because of your shared information.

Thanks again!
Chris

 

The perception of the typical prius user back in 2003 and on, was a more matured individual that considered the environment and drove like a snail. I considered a prius in 2005 when gas first hit $3/gallon then but I did not want to pay for the higher premium on the prius. The gen 2 prius then looked simple back then, comparatively. The gen 3 prius is appealing and has a interior that rivals its competitors. There is no doubt a more mainstream user is interested in the car, not to mention its appeal to gas efficiency. That was the biggest selling point for me.

 

good for you!

 

Congrats--enjoy.
