    I've had mine for around a month now...it's great!

    I'm getting around 60mpg (UK) even though the weather is very cold at present so am looking forward to summer to see how far I can stretch it.

    Enjoy! :)

    I just picked up my 2010 Prius today. I love the blizzard pearl paint and the car actually handles fairly well too. Any advice whether good or bad will be greatly appreciated.

    Bought my first new car Christmas eve after driving a '93 Toyota Corolla for nearly 18 years. I feel like Rip Van Winkle who's woken up to a whole new world.

    Driving a new Prius in the land of Mopar, Bowtie and Fords must be a bold new frontier. Going where few Prius' have gone before! Do you feel like a pioneer in the midst of native car land?

    Congrats on your new car. As you heard on PriusChat many times, be sure to read your owner's manual.

    Happy Motoring,

    Tom
