    View attachment 55150 View attachment 55150 prius.JPG Hello everyone,

    I just bought a 2010 Prius III with all the trimmings. Navigation system, Backup camera, DLP sound system, XM satellite radio, voice controls with Bluetooth, and a few other features I haven’t gotten around to exploring yet. After being on the fence about buying one, I finally took the plunge. I was got a Toyota care package (4 years 50,000 miles) plus 1st year of services free. Still in my adjustment period. Went from having to step up to get in to a SUV :)cry: bye baby), to having to lower myself in the car. (I’m a big guy for my size).

    Looking forward to more driving and less trips to the pump especially since a big part of my drive to work is me sitting in traffic. Now I don’t have to think about making an out of my way trip to the gym because of the gas I would use travelling both ways. Anyone have any hints, tips, or tricks, feel free to send them my way.

    Congrats and enjoy the car. I like the color. Same as mine. The pinstripe is a nice touch.

    You will start to see a few extra Benjamin's in your wallet with the gas savings :)

    Ha ha. Funny thing is it was raining and darker when I got it. The salesman asked me if I wanted them to remove the pinstripe. I didn't even notice it until he mentioned it.
