    You ever find yourself waiting for someone in the car, and turn off the HVAC? The car is completely silent. I love it. Very quiet & peaceful.

    As soon as it's warm enough to crack the windows, and not raining: the vent system goes off here.

    Yet another reason I've gone the plug-in route as I get to enjoy this feeling nearly all the time. I also like rolling down the windows and cruising around quiet residential streets with my dog. She REALLY loves that and can even hear/see things that would otherwise be drowned out.

    the prius is my wife's vehicle. I only drive it on the weekends or if we go out during the week. I had a 2012 that we sold and I got a 2016 Honda crv. I totally get what you are saying, though. It's so true. The Honda vibrates and is loud. The Prius is awesome. it's really incredible..Her car has 63,000 miles and is 3 1/2 years old and my car is like 8,000 miles and a year old and looks more worn than the prius.
