    Finally had enough with feeding my full size truck. Last fuel up was over $75 just for a 5 day work week. Finally said that's enough. I'm picking up my black Prius C Two tomorrow and I can't wait!
    More to come...:)

    Congratulations Don, and I know you will enjoy your new ride. Rode back from Danville, Va. to Newport News yesterday and it was all I could do to put 3.75 gallons in the tank after getting back...a drive of about 201 miles.

    Welcome to PC!~ Best Of Luck with Your New Ride.

    You have joined the many who put their families first.
    Pay for all this gas to Look Macho at the expense of my family or Get a Prius and spend the money on vacation or entertainment for the kids.

    You chose wisely my friend!!

    Nope, traded in the truck on the new prius... I do miss the truck but I don't miss the bad gas mileage.
