    I am only averaging 32 MPG, Wth? Just kidding. I am officially a tree hugger now. My magnetic gray with the EFPC 17's is absolutely gorgeous. I'm getting the windows tinted tomorrow. I'll have to figure out how to post pics after. When I got home, I checked the PSI in the tires, and they all had 32. I went with the 42-40. I have to admit, it feels like a slug with those wheels on, but we'll see what happens when it gets a few miles on it. BTW, my gray port leather seats are really nice. I was impressed. They are actually the perforated (sp?) version, which I think really looks nice.

    Congratulations! Every day you'll enjoy it even more. Don't forget about the slide-out storage compartment underneath the armrest! (Just found mine yesterday, after reading another post on this forum!)

    I got perforated (and heated!) in mine as well -- it really does add to the car :) My 4Runner's leather wasn't as nice.

    Congratulations. Have fun exploring but don't run out of gas. If the last pip on the fuel gage is blinking get gas.

    Congrats on your new Prius!

    Picked my 2006 Super White Option 8 Prius up a few weeks ago and love it!
