    thanks for everybodys recommendation here, I got a hold of Dianne Whitmire at Carson Toyota CA. Bought a 2014 v Three w/ moon roof. Dianne was so helpful and the process was quick and easy.

    I have a 2011 Prius too. Prius v cargo space and overall interior design is more superior. I'm 6'4" and there,s plenty of headroom.

    The moon roof was one of the feature I look forward to. It makes the whole driving environment completely different. Good to be able to enjoy more nice weather in southern California too.

    Entune is awesome to be able to get music and data off phone. Love the Pandora app, and iheartradio app. Now I can listen to local AM talk show with much higher sound quality.

    The navigation app is just poor. The interface is very difficult to use, I stick with my Google map on my galaxy Note 3 for navigation.

    For the backup camera, Almost 1/4 of the screen is showing the bumper instead. Is it the same for others? What's yours look like?

    There are still a lot of things I need to explore? Going to read the manual ... :)

    I hope you enjoy your Prius as much as I enjoy mine! (Doesn't having a salesman that is not slimy feel good? )

    That WD40 works like a charm! Sure keeps me regular. Mint flavor's best.

    i dont think so, i think mine just shows enough bumper to know where you're at. i'll have to doublecheck. perhaps it is adjustable.

    How well does the A/C handle the sun load through that awesome moonroof?

    I've seen the bumper the same as in your pic on all the Prius I have owned.
