I parked next to some empty spaces outside Old Navy and look what I found 30 minutes later! They appear to be breeding. (I'm the dark red on the left) [attachmentid=9319]

How did you fare putting it on? Any tips you care to pass on would be appreciated. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(starla30 @ Jun 29 2007, 10:17 PM) [snapback]470468[/snapback]</div> Great picture. Your car must have a magnetic personality!
Are you saying that you don't intentionally park next to Prii that you see? I know I do. They look so pretty together.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(liznowen @ Jun 30 2007, 01:24 AM) [snapback]470513[/snapback]</div> Liz, great idea! Never occurred to me- How about Hi Ho (Silver, as in the Lone Ranger?)
starla30: Nice! Apparently you have some kind of magnetic force field that attacts other Pri. Now come to this thread: http://priuschat.com/index.php?showtopic=33209&st=20 and sign up to meet with us and bring your friends!
When there are spaces- I usually come out to see a Prius next to mine or close... course maybe because it seems every 10th car is a Prius in Southern California...
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Zoozoo3 @ Jun 29 2007, 11:24 PM) [snapback]470512[/snapback]</div> except for putting it too high it went on perfectly.... no bubbles..... looks gread (except for being too high ) if i thought i wouldn't ruin the paint on the bumper... i'd take it off and reapply it where it's supposed to be (with the clear part hanging over the edge) i was SO mad when i realized i'd done it wrong! GRRRRRRrr oh..... i used bug and tar remover since i couldn't find that 3M cleaning stuff they want you to use!
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(inventor00 @ Jun 30 2007, 07:28 AM) [snapback]470587[/snapback]</div> They're pretty ubiquitous (thanks firefox spell checker) here in Seattle too. A while back I joined a similar Prius threesome in the local Safeway parking lot.
I usually make an effort to park next to another Prius if there is a spot. I figure the two cars can gossip while I shop. Can you imagine what kind of conversations they would have? Red Prius: So what's your average on this tank Blue? Blue Prius: <frowns> 38mpg at 120miles. Red Prius: You're kidding? Who's driving, Mario Andretti or that idiot Top Gear host? Blue Prius: <laughs> No, his name is Bob and he thinks "Pulse and Glide" is a dance move from the 70's. Red Prius: <winces> Well, at least he had the good taste to change your wheels. Are those from the Scion tC?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(desertbriez @ Jun 30 2007, 11:02 AM) [snapback]470616[/snapback]</div> Thanks for the tip. I'm trying to find the 3M stuff, too. I tried Ace hardware and the "Helpful Hardware Man" told me I should be able to get it at an auto parts store. I'm searching again today - good to know the bug and tar remover is a second option.
Something is wrong with my brain. I cannot see the wheels on the Blue Prius. All three G2 on the close side look to have stock rims. If the Blue G1 has TC rims, wouldn't that be nearly enough to explain why it is only getting 38 MPG? My big concern is that we need better integration between the G1 and G2 crowds. G1s are our elders, and should be respected, rather than being forced to park on the other side of the isle, away from the young floks. I am sure the young can lear loads from the more experienced G1. Edit - Oops, after reading again, I now realize that the conversation between the Red and Blue Prius was quoted from a different set of Prius parked together.

Picture is just beautiful/ I have never had the good fortune of parking next to another Prius yet/ Mary
Nice picture! Could this be a Prius in the back of the picture? (circled in yellow and behind the Pontiac Aztec)
Whenever I see another Prius, I try to park next to it. I also still wave at Prii on the road... no one waves back... they must not all be members of PC.
