    Hi folks,
    Just wanted to log-on and introduce myself.
    Just brought home a '14 v (lowercase v for the Prius v wagon, not an uppercase) three (sky/beige). Got a great deal, obviously, since the '14s are on the way out. It took quite a bit of research and emailing to get the color-combo we wanted, but worth the effort.

    Anyway, I had been on-the-fence for months ---awaiting the '15 v's---but was disappointed in learning that

    there is no upgraded battery in '15, and a massive bottom-feeder type nose is likely to be attached to the '15 v.
    So, spouse and I are thrilled that we slipped-in at the 11th hour.

    Hope to be a regular contributor to the Forum...

    Thanks.
    Just had the rear 5 windows tinted, added a black OEM rear bumper protector. Also ordered mudguards and body side molding.

    Very smooth and quiet ride compared to the '12 Subaru I had. Far better MPG and more interior room!

    It's a solid car and can haul 10 ft pipes inside to boot.

    I love that you can recline the front passenger seat all the way and relax in the back seat on long trips and the back seat reclines A++
