    2013 prius 3 with solar roof in dark grey with dark grey interior in Folsom, California. Averaged 48.8 on my trips around town after purchase on the 60 or so miles I drove. Now to figure out what all the little gadgets do.

    Interestingly enough, when they learned my nephew works there, they offered me the 8 year 95000 mile warranty for $1200 (family pricing) and the maintenance package for 5 years for $750. I said I would think about it. Prices good for six months, no inspection or questions asked. Worth it? Would be paid for cash, not financed.

    I love the Bluetooth!

    Pics coming when I figure out how to post them from my phone.

    It's not worth it. The car is ultra reliable and oil changes come only every 10k miles. There is nothing much else to do except a transaxle fluid change and that is not part of their service package.

    Congrats--enjoy.

    I'd pass on the extended warranty & pre-paid maintenance.
