    Perhaps on priuschat, but I see a fair number in Greater Detroit. I own two of them.

    Its been a while since any updates to this thread, but I'd love to get a spring get together for us Michigan Prius lovers.

    Ideally I'd like to meet up somewhere with food (Bdubbs?) and then after go to a local park for some pictures and to tailgate...err hatchback it for a little bit. :D

    Anybody up for it?

    Definitely agree. And late April or May is perfect IMO.

    Any other Michiganders interested in a meet up sometime late April or May?

    westland, not a popular area for such a car, mile from the ford truck plant, I have seen a few in town, I myself had a hard time bringing myself to consider an import to begin with, but I am a geek and lately I'm turning into a treehugguer, and while I find the car a bit overpriced at any condition, I found a decent deal in troy last fall, in my opinion, it was the only responsible buy, dont rat me out but I truly believe this is a verywell rounded daylydriver in every aspect, too bad the local engineers can't keep up, its not rocket science just politics and for the longest time I was blinded by it.

    Hi everyone! I have a quick question. I got my 2012 (2) a couple weeks ago from a dealership in Ohio. It worked fine until a few days ago when the electronic stuff went a bit crazy on me (yesterday the display and touch screen went blank for a second) and brakes started to make noises sounding like an enraged animal. The noises disappear after the first 10 minutes and the brakes went back to acting normal. I made an appointment to Victory Toyota in Canton for Tuesday but I'm always weary about dealerships, so my question is (phew! took me a minute to get to it! ) - can you recommend a dealership? One you've serviced your car at and with folks that know what they're doing?

    Oops! Forgot to add - I live in Belleville.

    Awesome on all the Michigan Priuschatter check ins :D

    Guys, once it warms up a little, I'd LOVE to arrange an unofficial Priuschat Michigan Member MEET at the Lake St Clair Metro Park (formerly Metropolitan Beach). Maybe mid-May or something... would you guys be interested in it?
