We do not have a "Touring", there are four models; "Basic HSD", "Business", "Executive" & "Park assist". Only the "Park assist" model has the rear camera + Toyotas auto parking "just acc and brake system" that makes city parking simple!?! Mine is an "Executive" w. everything exept the camera and park assist, the other two are either "Business" or "Executives". The Priis are fairly expensive in Sweden, the pricing starts at $40k, comparable to a VolvoS40 or a Saab 93, but there are car tax benefits the first 5 years and a $1500 cash "tax" refund for private buyers. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Rangerdavid @ Jun 11 2007, 06:39 PM) [snapback]459798[/snapback]</div> I find the wheels a bit strange actually.

Apparently, base model Prii even in 2007 use the old square graphics. This was discovered in a previous thread (http://priuschat.com/index.php?showtopic=3...mp;#entry455061).
In the video it showed the last 30 minutes that were mostly under 50mpg, I'm confused how he got an average of 51.8mpg. Must of had some great gains prior. I'm having a hard time keeping an average of 42mpg in my area of mostly hilly roads.
Nice vid. Let's see if you can beat the view count on my one and only YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=st7RxJKgAS8.
