    Hello all~

    I am a student living in south-bay area of California. I came across this great car when i first arrived here(its a pitty i only get to know about PC after getting my car). Anyhow, I cant help my self but to buy prius asap.

    This coming July 27th will be my 4th month into riding this car. I have only driven 2000miles, haha little huh. from my house to school is like 5 mile distance and the fact that I am new to this place and country I don't get to travel much but hopes are high as my summer has started and soon to be trevelling with this prius to boost some mpg.

    Anyway... i hope to learn more about my car from PC.

    Thanks for reading guys.

    Hi! I've driven very little with my Prius as well. I got my car on April 25th of this year, and have only reached 1070 miles so far. I'm on summer break right now and haven't really gone anywhere haha =)

    It's because your family name is used first, and your first name last, right? I remembered, because the Houston basketball team has a 7' center named Yao Ming, and he always corrected the press to call him Ming.
    Am I correct?
    Welcome to the PC family....you'll learn a lot.

    eh.. nah name is min ho and family name is kang, i am lazy to explain like this all the time becuase some people think ho is my middle name.

    so i ask people to call me min instead. short and simple.
