Just would like to say hi

Hi everyone. Just planning to come here when I am bored or by some chance have a question.

I literally just got the car today, and yes I am a geek for already looking for a forum

Anyway, I am a forum geek, I have many memberships with many different forums: the only other car forum I have attended is one for 4 Runner fanatics. The reason for this purchase after being dedicated to SUV's for about 11 years is that with my new job I drive...A LOT! Because of that I am paying out of the you know what for gas and it's getting to be nutz. I was going to get a Honda Civic hybrid but constantly so references how the Prius is a better car and deal. Then my fellow employee who is a hybrid nut too goes "You won't find one for they are on back order." So I call our local dealer and they just laugh, then pause, and it turns out they have this blue one. So about 3:30pm I sneak out work to take a peak, and I just fell in love with it. Now this should be a shocker for I am all about the SUV, just hate what it costs me in gas. Well I made a decision to save on gas, and since they have this one with all the bells and whistles: JVC, navigation, rear camera, and so on I figure what the hell. Paid a bit more than what I wanted to, and got a bit less for my car than what I wanted, but I am happy and hoping this will pay itself off in the end.

Other than that here is my first funny story about the car. So I leave the dealership without the introduction and what not for I have to get my kid so we can do this tomorrow. Well anyway I am at my job parking lot to drop off a few things, and I can't figure out how to get the key out of the hole for the life of me. Well just when I was about to call the dealership I see the power button and press it......keep in mind I fix PC's for a living, so to me this is very funny. I felt such like an end user. Going to look forward to learning all the gadgets this thing has; good thing it's stock so I don't need to worry about someone breaking into the car to steal it.
