    Hello PRIUSchat,

    I've joined the ranks of Prius owners. I just secured a 2013 Prius 2 in Blizzard Pearl and Dark Gray interior.

    Thanks to this great forum and its many awesome members in helping me decide to get into a Prius. I lurked around for a bit and took in the wealth of information.

    This is going to be fun and great not having to stop at the pump every other day.

    Thanks,
    Allan

    ^ I laugh every time I see this greeting and wonder how many others know of its reference :ROFLMAO:

    All the best to the recent newbies, and wishes for many, many trouble-free miles ahead.

    And this was your great decision - congratulations ! :)

    BTW - thanks to Priuschat we may learn not only the Prius-related matters.
    being curious of mentioned
    I googled and learned about Pre-Code Hollywood movies and where that song was from.
    Indeed we are also some kind of freaks ;)

    Parts were cut out of it even back then. Unfortunately, the parts can't be found and are considered lost.

    Even with the lost parts, it is still an ultra-classic that is not likely to ever be re-made in any genuine fashion.
