    I have had my Prius about 3 months and i love it, but are you kidding me? 16 character limit on satellite radio. This just blows my mind. This car is technological marvel and it can only handle 16 characters on the radio. Like having a crank start on the space shuttle!!!

    The most frustrating thing is there must be no fix for it because if there were, it would be on this forum. I am truly amazed with how well the people on this site know the Prius.

    By the way - it's not six presets. I found that each time you press the sat button it brings up the next screen of six presets.

    on sat, I like the text button, can see what the song is, instead of the six preset buttons. I use the steering wheel to change that.

    My friend has a Tundra. It will show the 6 preset buttons, the song title, and the artist, all at the same time. That would be nice on the Prius.
