    As the tittle suggests, my car has officially passed away today. I guess I wont be reaching 200,000 miles like I wanted to. Thanks to an 18-wheeler my car was totaled and I am now on the market for a Prius Prime. Definitely not something I was on the market for, but life has a funny way of making things happen. Sadly, I can only imagine how fun its going to be shopping for a Prius Prime in North Texas. IMG_7478.JPG IMG_7465.JPG

    Wow! I'm so sorry for your vehicle but elated that you are alright. Happy Prime hunting. Looked at one yesterday at Carson Toyota in California. Awesome.

    The Prius seems to really take a beating and protect the people as it should.
    The car can be replaced. People cannot be replaced.

    That's where this one came from, Dianne sold it to me back when they first came out in 2012.

    Perhaps she'll accept a slightly used trade-in?

    Glad you're still around to go Prime shopping! Wow!! 18 wheeler. Must have been plenty scary. Our 2005 saved us from a guy too busy texting at 60 mph to notice us sitting at a red light. Hope you find your Prime quickly and get lots of smiles from it.
