    I had never even driven a Prius until recently, when I went out shopping Priuses & Civic Hybrids (I already had an '03 CH). I must say, I am enjoying the ride thus far! It helps that I got the touring package with all the perks. I'm sure I stand in a long line of folks whose only complaint (though it is a significant one) is the inability to use all the navigation features while driving. Hopefully future navigation updates will do away with this silly restriction.

    Other than that, I am most satisfied with my purchase, and happy to join the club! :cheer2:

    :welcome: I hope you find PriusChat as helpful as I do.

    Given the litigious nature of the US, I do not foresee Toyota's lawyers ever sllowing you to drive and navigate. The buzzword to look for is 'lockpick' to unlock your Nav system.

    :welcome: welcome, EasyMack and congrats on your Prius purchase!
    If you're up to it, get comfy and start reading. There is tons of great knowledge in these forums.

    I have an '04. Bought it new six years and 80,000 miles of relatively trouble-free driving ago. I sincerely hope you come to love your Prius as much as I love mine.
