    edit oop title is wrong mean PKG 3 w/o nav...

    I requested that my dealer find me a PKG 3 in Red w/o nav. I haven't got it yet, it is supposed to be here the end of the week. Now I am thinking I am going to miss the touch screen and the backup camera (mainly for the coolness factor) that I have on my pkg 5 GenII. The main reason I did is that I am taking such a bath on the trade that I couldn't stand to add another $1800 to the pain.Is there anyone that recently went from a GenII to GenIII that can make me feel better about it?

    Buy a $60 backup camera from Autozone if you still have people left to impress with your gadgets. By this time next year portable GPS units that can do google searches will be affordable as well.

    Oh I wish you were here!
    I have red cars available coming out my ... er, ears!
    :eek:

    Anyway, that sounds like a wonderful work-around... an added back up camera. I gotta say though, there aren't much in the way of blind spots in Prius...
