    215BE612-A74A-401C-9834-FE0DF7BD016A.jpeg Hi everyone!

    My name is Dominique, and I’m new to this forum. This is my first Prius, and my second Toyota. My other car is a 2011 Yaris, which I’ll be keeping as a barn car. Sticker price on the Prime Advanced was $34,760.00, I walked out the door paying $28,971.00, including tax, saving $6,100.00 with non cash incentives. I’m not exactly sure if I got a great deal or not but I’m very happy with my purchase and look forward to the future with this case.

    Congrats! You will really enjoy all the tech in this car. Although many here dislike the beeping in reverse, I quite like it as the car is so quiet, may forget what gear you are in. Lol.

    The Beeping in Reverse, is customizable; there is a an entire section of the owner's manual on features you can customize.

    +1 for Carista, it works on lots of cars including your Yaris.

    Google led interior light replacements for a 17 prime, cheap but a wondrous improvement.

    Check your air pressure, it’s either 50lbs from the factory or 30lbs from the dealer, you want 40lbs.

    Don't just toss out gems of misinformation, man. From the Owner's Manual:
