    We just took delivery of our 2023 Prime, it will replace my 2003 Gen1 which only had about $2,500 of unscheduled maintenance over those 20 years and 220,000 miles and can still get 50MPG if driven conservatively! My wife's car is a 2014 Prius V. The farewell tour of the old Prius was a trip to Key west last fall and to the Arctic Circle this spring. Three Prii.jpg

    Toyota should hire you two for a heartfelt tv spot/ad about being a Prius owner!

    Priusmouse: No, it the color they call "Cutting Edge" (makes no sense). To us normal people it is the lighter grey offering, possibly silver-ish. At the dealership they had this color and the darker grey (Guardian Grey), and I'm all for lighter colors. Turns out I didn't have an option, someone got to the other car before I did even though I was there within 10 minutes of getting the call that there were two cars available! Secretly I was hoping for red, but since these were "rejects" by folk with orders who chickened out, said I would be OK with anything but black--and am!

    Still getting used to the upgrade from 97HP in my old '03 Prius to the this new one. More fun than should be allowed in a Prius! :)
