    My dealer called this pm to tell me that my new Prius arrived today. It is a Black with Package #6 with XM radio. I am excited to finally get the car and begin enjoying what I hope is a significant reduction in my gas usage during my 500 mi. weekly commute to and from work and my small contribution to the environment.

    Any specific suggestions from the experts on starting out my new Prius driving experience? Thanks ahead of time for any advice!:)

    Welcome to PC spinnerbug!! I envy you, the anticipation and that "new prius eve" feeling!!! I remember it well..... You're gonna love your new spaceship, and not just the saving money part on the gas bill, but the good feeling from knowing you're helping our environment, then there's all the tech in your car!! Remember, it is after all, and "partial zero emissions, advanced technology vehicle"
