    Hello everyone.

    I have just purchased my Prius. My first Toyota and my first hybrid. Also my first Japanese car.

    2008 Touring in Magnetic Grey with Nav/JBL/Bluetooth and black leather. 54000 miles.
    Already enjoying the excellent fuel economy. I am averaging 50.1 mpg so far.
    Future plans are to change the transaxle fluid. Also adding XM satellite.

    My only negative, this is the first car I've owned with leather, but no heated seats.

    Hello!

    How did your Prius fair in the winter? Have you had any service done at any shops and if so who have you used? I'm very new to all of this and soaking up as much info as I can. I live in KZOO.
