    My wife and I have been the very happy owners of a 2005 Prius for approx. 2 1/2 years. The car has performed wonderfully and we are obviously quite satisfied. I have enjoyed reading the forums on PriusChat and have finally taken the time to log on and become a member. I find the issues discussed to be very topical, highly informative and often thought provoking. Hope to be able to offer thoughts or insight in the future.

    Longtime PriusChat member, but new to PA (1 year ago yesterday, i crossed into PA!).

    Welcome and what part of PA is Wallingford? I want to organize a greater Harrisburg group to get together every once in awhile, similar to the group I fronted in S. Dakota.

    Wallingford is where Dick Clark lived when he hosted "American Bandstand". It is on the Pennsylvania Railroad portion of the R3 commuter train line.

    I am also in the Philadelphia area and also on the R3 commuter train line, but I am on the Reading Railroad portion.

    Hi Neighbor! I'm a newbie to these forums too -- welcome! We're right down the street in Media. Where did you get your 05? We bought at Conicelli & had a very good experience.

    Wallingford, IIRC, is right next to Swarthmore, where my No. 1 daughter graduated college.

    Welcome to the forum frank05. Since you have an '05, how many miles do you have on your Prius right now? Please feel free to give us some tips to newbies like me. ;)

    We also bought a Conicell (Springfield) and had a very good experience. We now have just over 36,000 miles and the car is running really well. So far, the service/maintenance work at the dealer has been excellent.
