    Well Wednesday I finally got my Prius, 2010 II. Ah, so very cool. Olewassername, my bride of 4 decades has a Honda Civic Hybrid.

    I now refer to her HCH as the "gas guzzler" in the family. She finds no humour in that. Such unappreciation of clever humour.

    Nope, olewassername has been a bit of a running joke for a couple of decades. It is a two way street, so she will land a good jab now and again.

    As far as color, I had a choice that shocked me a bit. I almost went with black but just could not pull the trigger on that one, I liked the red but it was sold, but the silver I liked more than I thought I would. I have a silver truck and like the way it does not show as much dirt.

    Our daughter and son in law have had a white 07 Prius and just love it. My wife was a bit partial to Honda and went that way during the C4C.

    I very very happy with my II. Still must rig up a temporary Sirius set up so I can still transfer it between this and the truck.

    And this forum it ultra cool.
