OK, so I'm WAY late to the party as most of you got your 2010's like forever ago, but I wanted to post anyway because I'm excited. Please indulge me... Today I am officially moving on from my 2001 Gen I to a 2010 Gen III. I shall be sad to see my little green friend go, but hope that it will provide some Prius happiness to someone else after 8 yrs and 8 months of service to me. I hope I'll enjoy my Gen III as much. Or more. I am getting a Prius II in sandy beach metallic. Woot! :cheer2:
Congrats! I'm sure you'll enjoy the G3, just as I am. Those G1 in the US are probably getting scarce...only 60k units were sold total, just 15k in 2001....
Hi Sarahsoo, Yours is a great post. My first Toyota and Hybrid is the GenIII I now own. I purchases it with the intent and hope is would be a long term investment. It is very exciting to see someone like you holding a Prius for almost 9 years and trading for another Prius. Thanks for posting. -- TK
We loved our 2007 Gen I Prius, P1, so much we couldn't let her go. We turned in my husband's clunker and purchased a Gen III, P3. He's driving P1 and I'm driving P3. No complaints about either one. Enjoy your new ride.
Not most of us are in G IIIs, most still have G IIs.. Congrats on the new car, enjoy. Oh, and congrats for being a pioneer in Prius World with the G I.
Congrats Sarahsoo....I had a Gen 1 and now have a Gen III and am loving it. I am sure you will too....Be safe and drive careful in the new baby! Let us know how your liking it....
Congratulations on your new Prius G3! Do enjoy your new ride and drive safe, Sarahsoo. Post pictures and share the joy.
Cool! that speaks loudly for your experience in the Gen I. Enjoy the new Gen III. You'll love the new technology.
Thank you all! I am loving the new car! It's familiar and yet better, which is great as it's not a big transition from driving the old one, but it feels really solid and is a great drive. I will have to get pictures at some point - maybe tomorrow.
