    Ordered my wife's sea glass pearl Prius v Two on Valentine's Day. I wanted the Prius three with the solar roof and plus package (would have been the first on the island). Oh well, it's her car. This is our first hybrid and we decided on the prius line due to it's reputation and history. This site has helped with the decision making process, so MAHALO to you!
    BTW, I do expect to contribute when I can. I've been looking at the mod threads and it's given me "ideas". Already started research on EL wire as wife is interested in getting emblems to light up. I also found several JDM vendors where I can get the Prius Alpha badge.

    A Hui Hou

    Congrats!
    Best of luck with the Prius. It should do very well in your fair climate.

    How's gas prices there? it's $4/gal in NY.

    Aloha cousin. Welcome aboard and enjoy that new ride! Be sure to run the fan for a few minutes after you get home/work with the air condition off to help minimize mold/mildew build up.

    Aloha,
    I think with Hawai`i's speed limit you would have great MPGs.
