    After owning over 100 cars in my life, I just bought my first hybrid, first Toyota car, and first Prius...all in one. I bought a Certified Preowned 2020 Prius LE. So far, I'm really loving the car. I need to get an OBDIl to turn off the silly back up alarm. I NEED some light in my trunk. I need some black wheel covers. I need some other good customization "hacks". Hope to learn a lot here.

    Congrats and here's the LED interior light bulb replacement you are looking for....that trunk will be nice and bright with this!
    Caution: After replacing in my 2021, my wife declined them for her 2017 because they are "too bright"

    By the time I've owned 100 cars I'll be as old as Yoda.

    If you had not stopped driving the way you drove when you were 16 years old, it'd be easy to be at 100 cars by now... This would be an interesting post idea though. Something like: How many years driving and how many cars have you owned?

    I've been driving for 39 years and not counting my spare Prius that I own but never driven more than down the street, I've owned 3 cars in my life: '83 Mazda RX7, '92 Subaru Loyale and 07 Prius. How about you @ChapmanF

    I wonder if OP is willing to list all the cars they owned?

    When I was 16 years old I got my permit so I could finally drive the car I'd been rebuilding for the past year, and I drove it till I was 24.
