    I'm in guys, I'm an owner, drove it home and got like 32 mpg , so now I need to sit down with the manual and learn more but I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! All these months of reading, put to rest my concerns, now I have my learning curve. Even my 51/2 year old thinks its cool!!! He loves the backup camera which they set to not beep which I have mixed feelings about because I'm in a neighborhood with a lot of little kids- off to change my signature!

    The beep is only inside the car anyway...an it's annoying. So if you want an external beep you need to add something aftermarket.

    I have a very obnoxious "Attention Please, This car is backing up" external alert that I've added on.

    BTW, Congrats and enjoy!

    Yea MOM! I knew you would eventually get one after doing a lot of research and thinking. Important decisions are often the hard ones. Congratulations, and enjoy!
