    Hi

    Just kidding about the old wife. She is not old. Just not as new as the 07 Prius I got in April. I have been loving the car and the only bad thing is keeping it from my wife. She loves it too.

    I've been getting about 55 MPG since I got it and have been getting great info from this site. I had a Chrysler before and getting 23 more MPG is great... Not to mention that the Chrysler was in the shop every other month. And a new Transmission....

    The Prius is not that much smaller on the inside. Yes it is smaller but I thought it would be very small. I'm 6'4 and I wish I had more leg room but the only car I have ever driven with enough leg room was a S-500 Benz.

    I love this site and forum.

    I traded in my Chrysler Town & Country JUNK van for a Prius . . . Best decision I ever made. I will NEVER buy a Chrysler product again! Same as you, I doubled my milage and did not sacrifice that much and avoided costly repair bills if I would of kept the van.

    You better hope your wife does not see your post here, or you'll be sleeping in your new Prius! :lol:

    I wanted to post something on the board. Being a new member of the prius "family" so to speak. It was my first time. Mainly, I love the site and forum and habe been lurking for a month. I thought I said that. And it is nice to have a place to get information about a car I don't know much about.


    And Sometimes things don't need a purpose. But, I will keep posts informative only.

    I thought it was "I love the Prius. Unfortunately, my wife does, too."

    I don't think it's unreasonable for the SNR of a forum to dip every now and then. Hard to build community spirit when you don't let people be human. :)
