    I haven't even had her for a year and already bored; however, Im not bored of passing gas stations. I finally got her the way I want her to look but is still uncomfortable to drive. What do you all think (besides im crazy)?

    If you spent money on "looks" for a car that is not comfortable for you to drive........then I think that pretty well sums it up. :)

    I've never owned a "stock" car so that is par for the course. The C is a great little car but the headrest is extremely uncomfortable and I didn't even notice until recently. I know there have been numerous postings about it but no confirmed fixes, maybe i'll try another Prius year headrest.
    Sorry bisco Im new to PriusChat and am not familiar with what, "hyacc" means??

    Thanks for your reply, the accord is nice but i think real world MPG will be on par with Camry Hybrid. It does look comfy though.

    Go with the C1 no headrest to deal with and actually more comfortable seats.

    Some people have had luck with sticking the headrest in a vice and bending it backwards slightly. It relieves the forward push that the headrest has.

    You have way of getting it to look the way you want though you cannot get a driving position that feels the way you want? Hmmm, Single, frugal will pay top dollar for looks but if it doesn't feel right you are out of the relationship? Work on it Man!!!

    You must not live in a densely populated area or you live in an area where all people are really good drivers.
