    Today I Pumped up the tires (by hand with a wrench force bike floor pump) in my wife's new 2014 prius v three. 40f/38r. That was a workout. lol.:D

    I also made an appointment at the tint shop for tomm for her car to get tinted out. I told them 35% all around and a sunstrip up top on the windshield. Her car is the Clearsky blue. Is 35% dark enough with the Bisque interior and all those big windows? I always go full limo 5% on my cars and she has driven them plenty of times w/o issue but at night I think it might be a little much for her especially since she wears glasses… Any input? not many tinted clear sky v pics online I noticed..

    Do I hafta admit it :ROFLMAO:
    This was a specialty shop, but work on skyline's, wrx's etc. they said they were gonna call other shops to give me a fair quote. ( I'm sure they didn't know what to charge) Didn't bother with a dealership cause I knew it would be high. I don't see many modded prii here in CT, so I'm sure it's a rare request.

    840 / 50 mpg = 16.8 gallons @ $2.50 / gal. = $42 each way…. even less if you hyper mile or go 55-60 mph!


    lol!!;)

    Hahaha. I should convert my garage into a shop, leave my registered nurse position at the University and do full time surgery on priuses. Sounds good! Getting tired of drips, code blues and dealing with stubborn residents and MDs.

    35% with the bisque interior will be pretty lite in my opinion. That's what I have on my (now my wife's) black Prius v with bisque interior and wish I went darker, but I was sticking with what is legal here. I think 20% would have been really good, but not to dark.
