    is how long I have had my new Prius . . . and just loving it. Best car I have ever owned. As with my hours and hours of playing on my mac, I find just learning about this car's technologyis nearly as fun as driving it!

    Oh, the specs . . . Tideland Pearl (which does look like a smokey gray in some light, greenish in other light), package 6. So far this week, averaging 44.2 mpg in the mile high city.

    In the last week I have learned so much from other Prius owners on this website . . . Thanks for all the great information. Glad to be part of the Prius community!

    Congrats and good luck with it.

    I've had my silver AM for a week minus a day. I'm getting about 45 driving to and from work (15 miles each way through town).

    Yes, the site has helped me in many ways also and I'll keep checking in even though I'm not the chatty type :lol:

    I'm thankful I didn't have a horrible wait like some of the folks endured (only a month or so).

    And congrats to you Lizard! I'm also lucky -- the wait in Denver was only 2 weeks.

    Congrads., have had mine for about 3 weeks, and about 800 miles. Love the car, mileage not as good as you PRO's., but it is Texas 95-100's lots of AC, and my routes are shorter, lots of stop wait and go and short trips. Getting set to make a 200 mile trip to/from Houston, so may see better economy, at this point getting only a little better then 40 MPG., but what an improvement over the 14-15 MPG my 2002 Explorer was giving me!! Still happy and the car is a marvel and full of goodies and stuff to do and explore, it is a pleasure to drive, rides good, and has good sound.

    Good luck with yours
    Silver, 2005, PCKG "B", nothing fancy.. wanted the smart key, but the dealer could not get that..that is all I really miss.

    We've had ours 4 days, and I know exactly what you mean! I haven't stopped grinning. I actually LIKE to drive now. It's not a utilitarian necessity but a pleasure.
