    First post - bought a 2011 Prius 4 with the solar and Prius Plus options a week ago. Car is black & dealer tinted the rear windows. Car looks really good & runs better.
    Today our 16 yr old used it to get his first driving license from the DMV. The guy who tested him said it was the best looking Prius he's seen. Car behind us in line was a 2nd Gen red Prius and she passed her test as well. Awsome day today ! :)

    Another member from Lincoln. :)

    I moved from there in 2005 but I'm always in the area because I manage 2 nature preserves in the area. One just outside of town on Hwy65 (the large barn on the right as you pass the shooting range) and another off Gladding Rd. I serve on the Greater Lincoln Fire Safe Council as well. Keep an eye out for a lil red GenII Prius. :)

    thanks - guess I need 3 posts & then figure out how to post a picture. Sure will, probably on the weekend. Car is black, black tinted rear windows, chrome strip on the bottom of the doors, and the 17" prius plus forged wheels. Am very pleased with it and like the performance & technology even more. Gas mileage has been in the 50 mpg range. Traded in a jeep patriot with 100K miles that I was getting 23 - 25 mpg.
    F8L - Thanks for taking care of the wildlife around here, we do see a lot. Hawks, owls, coyotes, turkeys, many different species of birds, deer, etc etc. (Twelve Bridges). We live in a good place.
