    Hi there!! My name is Billy and I just purchased a new to me 2010 Prius IV with Solar Roof package. I bought this a week ago from a Toyota dealer as a CPO with 24000 miles and I've already racked up 1000 miles on it. Coming from a 2006 4-cylinder Honda Accord that gets 30mpg (with 201,000 miles) to a car that gets around 48mpg is quite awesome especially since I put about 100 miles a day. I'm definitely looking forward to a lower gas bill every month!

    I'm a member at DriveAccord for a long time and they have been more than helpful with my Accord and now that I found Prius Chat and this forum is just as helpful. I have spent days reading the forum and I love the participation here.

    The car is very stock but I'll be doing a few mods. I have already installed LED interior lights and HID headlights with LED parking lights. I purchased the fog lights kit from PC shop and JDM turn signal mirrors and looking forward to install them next weekend. I'm still debating whether I should put auto headlights on. It looks quite intimidating. Anyways, I will definitely be hanging around and want to say thanks for having such an awesome community for newbies like me.

    Congratulations! Your Prius will pay for itself in no time with those kind of miles.

    :)Welcome from Virginia. Interesting, the number of members who mod their Prii. This is your best source for Prius information.
