There were two!i even got to drive one. Thanks, Rebound! Sorry about that. We should have left instructions with the hostess at D&B and let any latecomers know to just come inside. Indeed! I am burnt like a mofo! I forgot to put sunscreen on my feet and neck. I was going to post my photos but Macman posted nearly the same exact photos I took and he has a nicer camera. :rockon:
And saving the best for last... Sweet red Volt, Cycledrum actually does fit in a GenII, and my total trip mpg!
LOL, it's more like ... cycledrum 'technically' fits in a 2nd gen Prius, but does he really fit? ... Nooo. (my thumb was on the way down. Look at that grimace) And besides, they stuffed me in there .. hey, what's all this 59 MPG?? I'm only at 53
It was a bit cooler. I think it got into the low 80s in Milpitas. It got to past 90 F in my part of San Jose yesterday. :/
Wow, 45F here now after sundown. If this silly weather keeps up, I'll be able to try out my heated seats when my car arrives I can only dream of warm & sunny weather here. It happens but not too often. Mike
It is the trip summary function. It shows the last trip I took. It shows up when you turn the car off. It is new to the 2012. The price is wrong because I still have the price of gas at $4.17/ga. I think.
$4.17 a gallon for gas That is crazy. It's $3.54 here today. So my car will have that display in your 4th picture? Mike
That was at Costco. The Chevron up the street was $4.28/ga. Supreme and diesel were much more. Gas prices have dropped down to under $4 now though. You'll have the same screen on your car. I don't know of any way to bring it up other than turning the car off and it only stays on for a minute then disappears so have your camera ready. LOL
it was really nice and warm today... lol.. definitely cooler than the other day... but goodness gracious.. i can't wait to get my tint done next week so it keeps the interior a bit cooler. and... it was awesome meeting everyone today.
If you get more than 59 on the way back then it must be true the BP paint gives better mpg. Seriously, not a bad number for that range and speed.:rockon:
Better change that Five to a Blizzard Pearl I was very surprised it was that far for Justin. Had to look at Google Maps to figure that one out. Wonder if he was driving the fun back roads all the way Mike
It was good to meet you too. If was fun watching you guys tweak your ride with the laptop. lol I got 59.7 there and 59.7 on the way back. Give or take a 10th. No back roads. I took 113 to 80 then 680 so all highway/freeway. The location and my house are less than 1mile off each exit.
It was great to meet everyone today! The cars are cool, but you guys are way better. Thanks to the critic Mike for organizing and for those who came from far away, Mike, Justin, cproaudio (couple hundred miles!), who'd I miss?
Holy crap a couple hundred mile trip? That's dedication What is this laptop car tweaking? Does someone have the software and interface to read & write to the car??? Mike
You'll have to ask them. I saw them pushing keys on the laptop and making the lil Prius c horn honk. lol
Funny I truly think one day someone will crack their way into the Prius computers and have full read/write control over them. It's just a matter of time. Mike
It was great meeting up with everyone! I had an opportunity to ride shotgun in a couple to lowered 3 Gen Prii through the parking lot - one had eibach springs/17 inch wheels, the other was slightly lowered with a rear sway bar - I could readily tell that both cars cornered flatter than the stock PIP. :high5:Oh what a feeling!:high5: 2012 PIP - standard trim, classic silver metallic
