    Interesting, what's w/the handle XW30? Hope you realize Toyota has never called any Prius "XW30", AFAIK. (Long story about the "geniuses" who decided to muck w/the Prius Wikipedia entry that I no longer pay much attention to.)

    You have a ZVW30 and I've got a NHW20.

    We just got home, WOW what a great group of people!
    The cars, while being the same, were all different! There are some really creative Prius drivers out there!
    I hope I got around enough to meet many of you, now I have a face to put with the post!
    Next time, I will bring "Red" down, oh oh now I feel a detailing job coming on!

    All of you had great rides, were fun to dine with, and hope to see you next time!
    (Please note, the above also reflects wifes view, although, she really loved the Blue Fit EV that drove through before we went in....)
