I've been gone for five weeks on a business trip and my wife has been driving "my car" (the '13Prius v 5 with ATP) while I am out of town. There is a possibility that when I get back home we will be trading in the wife's 4-Runner Sport for another Prius.

When she drove me and a co-worker to the airport he thought he would have to give us verbal directions to his house as the Tom Tom he bought last year can't find it (he has lived there for 5+ years), but the ATP nav system took us there without a hitch.

Does the v ride rougher and noisier than my daughters Camry? Yes it does, but if I wanted a ride in the Camry/Accord class I would have bought a Camry hybrid.

No dropped calls (yet) - including a road trip from Florida to Missouri and back (wife won't fly -- phone is AT&T on a Nokia 920 - sadly no Entune). The trip was a duplicate of a trip taken 6 weeks earlier (mother-in-law's health). The earlier trip was in my 2011 Tacoma double cab (that got traded in for the v), and both my wife and I were impressed with the v in comparison to a late model Tacoma.

Guess what I'm saying is it's all in expectation management. That said, I'm still under 5k miles on the v, so if you think I'm just a noob, so be it.
