    Between Prius Poker and keeping an eye on the MFD, is ANYONE watching the road??

    lucky all of you!

    i usually only see mine the whole day. here in graz/austria it´s really frustrating.

    so i´m glad when i see a prius, and i don´t even think of checking the colour.

    but - in the last weeks i saw more than ever before: two or three a week.
    (haven´t seen a white one yet.)

    Great....another way to drive myself crazy now!

    So the Prius rainbow involves 11 colors....12 if you can manage to tell the two silvers apart?

    I typically see a blue, red and silver on my way to and from work. I see them everyday and still no waves. Boo to rude people

    Re: The Prius Rainbow!

    In my 10 minute walk this morning from the downtown train station to my office, I spotted 4 Prius!!! Whoo Hoo!!! I had not seen that many in one day before, I see at least 2-3 everyday walking back and forth to the train station downtown.

    Today I saw...

    a Black Prius
    A Silver Prius
    A Silver Pine Mica Prius
    A Barcelona Red

    all within my 10 minute walk

    Perhaps a Prius Bingo game? Hmmmm... I'll have to make up cards and see if there's a way to fill a Bingo card. Then randomize, print cards and voila! Instant game for the kids!

    I usually see one each of the following:
    Barcelona red (our baby)
    2 silvers
    1 black
    1 blue
    1 green

    every day. The owners all work where I work.

    I ALMOST saw the Prius rainbow yesterday. OK so it was to and from a restaurant, not just one way, but I don't make many long trips. I saw:

    2 barcelona red (including mine)
    2 salsa red
    1 spectra blue (this was the first one I saw, only the 2nd I've ever seen, so when I saw it i thought I might have a chance at seeing all the colors)
    1 silver (not sure which)
    1 black
    2 seaside
    1 driftwood
    1 mag grey
    and
    either a tideland or another mag grey, couldn't tell

    All I missed was white and silver pine, and I didn't cheat and drive by the SPM prius that lives near me on the way home, either, although I might have if I had seen a white one before that.

    How many points do you get if you take a parking spot if the previous occupant of the space was also a Prius? It happened to me for the first time at Costco on Saturday. He pulled out his driftwood pearl and I took the spot with my super white.

    Judy, I sure try hard to pay attention to the road. The MFD is addicting.

    Lots of other Prius drivers are talking on the phone, I notice. No wonder they don't wave!

    Two-way's are fine, and drive-by's aren't cheating (except for driving by Toyota dealerships).

    (No, I did not drive by a Toyota dealership

    Never occured to me since the one place you WON'T find a Prius these days is a Toyota dealership!:)

    I've seen black, seaside pearl, silver and something else, but...
    I thought I was the only Super White around here.

    A rainbow flag on a prius is sort of like one on a Miata.. Redundant. .... er, but, so is the HRC sticker on the back of ours.. oops!

    And NO, no stickers at all on my Miata!
