    Greetings, fellow owners. I just traded-in a 2005 Tundra on a 2010 Prius II, Blizzard Pearl. I'm looking forward to learning more about the car. I've put 80 miles on it so far and am getting used to the different driving experience.

    :welcome:

    My advice is just try to become comfortable with the controls, you will get great gas mileage without trying, then when you are familiar where all the instruments are, you can start trying to get even better mileage.

    I hope you ask questions if you get frustrated, (or even before) we like happy owners!
