    Hi everyone! I just got my first car, and it's a 2011 package 3 Prius w/ solar package. I am so happy with it. It looks so bad nice person when the solar roof is open :).

    Any tips on how to get the best fuel economy? Also, does anyone know if tints mess with the navigation? I read in the manual that it might :/

    Welcome aboard and enjoy your ride! What color? There are many threads on here about FE and everything else you want to know. With that said, you should read the owner's manual front to back.

    Welcome! There are a number of good threads and videos on how to maximize your fuel economy in normal driving or hypermiling techniques. Please don't obstruct traffic while doing so, though.
