    I'm a proud owner of a 2010 Prius V. Just bought it three weeks ago. Never been part of a car club. But interested in meeting other Prius owners in my area. I live in SW Florida. Ft Myer's area. Anyone interested?

    By 10/11/2017, I will set up a web site called Prius Club of Florida. The goal is to start a group that can hold
    state wide meetups. We should definitely use PriusChat for discussions but use the web site for state wide
    notifications, etc..

    Not likely.
    The posting above you was that user' only post and they have not been seen since.

    Perhaps you could arrange something with @jerrymildred in the Tampa area.

    We are in Fort Myers for part of the year and usually end up going to the classic car shows on First Avenue downtown for lack of anything better to do. (We are both retired). A row of Prii on First Avenue might be an interesting display (if we can ignore the mocking we'd get from the regular classic car show attendees). We would bring either our Gen 2 or the Gen 4, but they are both completely stock. (Boring!)

    I travel to Sarasota every week.
    And stock is good. LESS things to worry about. To me, it's a car. It should work for me.
    And the Prius has been very good to me! You'll always have normal maintainence to do on the do an any car.
    So it doesn't bother me.
    There are only 3 things I wished I had. The JBL system because of the amp which makes it louder.
    With me raising the volume on my podcast 100% and the volume on the radio at about half way it's
    good enough. Anything above half way does very little because of the limit of the unit. But it is still better
    than my older van. :)
    And it would have bluetooth. Which would one less cable to hook up.
    And the windows tinted. This has become a MUST! It's rough having the sun beating down on me.
    I just haven't decided if I want to do it myself or pay someone. Side windows won't be a problem, the rear deck
    with the defogger will be a pain.

    I'm honored. But my plate is already way too full. :(
