Hi from South Florida. I just became a Prius owner two days ago! Even though I've only owned the car two days, I already love it. My wife and I got a 2013 Prius v Two. We happily trade in the crossover/SUV when we discovered there was such a thing as the Prius v. We've long been interested in Prius and are finally happy owners. I'm reading up and finding this forum to be very informative. I really appreciate reading about the importance to maintain the tire pressure difference between front and rear. Anyway, I thought I'd say hi from South Florida (Broward County).
Welcome to PriusChat! I hope you enjoy your Prius as much as I have mine! For most of the US, winter is poorer mileage than summer, but you may well find that in south Florida, that A/C hurts your summer mileage and spring and fall are your best times. Above about 85F I take my v out of Eco as I need the extra A/C that Normal provides.
Thanks. I'm glad you had a great time in Florida. We sometimes drive across Alligator Alley to Naples for a quick day trip...nice beaches over there. Thanks! I'm in Coral Springs, although originally from DC. I see you're in the Atlanta area now. I've been once and thought it seemed like a great city.
yes my father and brother live in bonita springs, beautiful area. but i can remember when there was nothing there.
Isn't that the sad truth all over the state?! It's disappointing to see extreme over-development in such a beautiful state. I can't wait to cruise over in the new Prius.
agreed. we bought time share in orlando in 2004, the changes since the have been amazing. the traffic! oh well, there seems to be no stopping progress. baby boomers i guess.
