    I just purchased a 2008 Prius. I knew I wanted a Prius and this one was the only one on the lot so I bought it. How do you know what package you have? I spent four hours at the dealership but I can't remember what number package I have. I hate to ask but I am a newbie. :grouphug:

    The packages and options should be listed on the window sticker which the dealer should have placed in your glove box.

    Otherwise go here

    Toyota Prius - 2008 Options and Packages

    and match what you have to what is available.

    The dealer did provide you with both the owner's manual and the scheduled maintenance guide, right? (Not an answer to your original question, but if you don't have the documents which tell you which package you got then you may also not have received other stuff.)

    Your package 2 was 2006's package 4. You'll be happier as the FE improves over time as you learn how to drive more efficiently.:)

    Pick up a brochure and keep the window sticker in it to document your car. As things change over time I find it interesting to look back & see how things used to be.

    I agree. I found the sticker. I should not have been getting a divorce and buying a car at the same time. We worked it all out so now I can focus on the car issues. I went from a no bells or whistles van to the Prius so it has been really different. My favorite thing is passing by the gas stations!!!!!;)

    Welcome dixie. I think you'll find that the package 2 is a perfect compromise between utility, reasonable cost, and yet still has loads o' goodies compared to most cars out there. You can always add aftermarket nav and bluetooth if you feel you need it. Congratulations on the new car......but sorry about the divorce.

    If you still don't know by now what package your Prius has...just give your sales representative a quick jingle.

    Congrats and enjoy saving gas.
