    If you do a search way back, I believe someone used a trimetric meter on a Prius and a regular car. The Prius had less EMF than the regular car.

    Those are the 15" wheels w/o the wheel covers. Looks like this photo was taken prior to the vehicle's PDI (pre-delivery inspection) where the stickers are pulled, covers put on, etc.

    Oh, the wheels aren't aluminum? They have plastic covers?

    Hi no...,

    They are aluminum, and have covers as well - to reduce aero drag.

    I got mine today in Dorchester, MA without the Proof of Origin paper. They let me drive off with a dealer plate until they get it.

    My car had no MCO either but I'm still driving it. The dealer said they tend to take about 3 working days to get them from the port. I have 20 day temp plates so I should be ok.
    I guess Mass is different about this. I have an inspection sticker and I don't even have my regular plates yet. :confused:
    Weird!

    Mass is liberal, but honestly the temp plate pretty much covers you. The cops won't ask for a certificate of origin. That's like carrying your title with you. Mass doesn't have temp plates either. So here I'll be ok and the dealer says Toyota will send the info to wherever it has to go anyway.
    The dealers say this is happening with a lot of cars not just the Prius. I'll get my paperwork done next week as Mass doesn't recognize temp plates.
