    Hey guys!

    Just signed the lease for a 2012 Blizzard Pearl Prius Plug-in (my first Prius). Bummed to find out that the $2500 credit doesn't apply to leases, but very excited nonetheless. I am picking it up next Monday.

    I plan on adding a dashcam just like I did in my RAV4, but otherwise don't have any major plans since it is a lease.

    I was considering buying a regular Prius few months ago, and am happy to find out that the 'basic' version of the Plug-in is loaded with options such as nav, backup cam and more.

    If there are any must read tips/articles regarding this car, please feel free to point me into the right direction.

    Welcome! I leased the Blizzard Pearl 4 weeks ago myself. I would suggest that you read thru the many posts here. It is easy, enjoyable reading and you learn a lot. I did - and I did (learn a lot) especially as this is my first Prius. You can also use the search box to locate topics you are interested in.

    Enjoy the serenity of the ride!

    I remember there being some sort of Toyota Cash program for leases, sounds like the right amount (some of the paperwork is still at the dealer, so can't confirm right now).
