well that's great news, but not every tech goes through the community/technical college system and trust me, not every tech wants anything to do with hybrids. there's still a lot of ground to cover here. it's a good start though.
Hi I'm getting my new Prius any day now. What do I need to look out for at the car wash and tire store? Steve
I haven't gone to a car wash where I actually have to get out of it and let some dufus "clean" it. I'm not interested in being their first Prius customer. I'll go to a good car wash and after that, I go to a spray wash place and give my Prius the once over with the Spotfree Rinse. If it's really dirty, I go to the spray wash first and make sure all the tough spots are clean, then I go to the car wash then the spotfree rinse. I went to Discount Tire. They gave me $50 per tire trade-in and I got Goodyear TripleTreds. They're great for this climate.
