    I picked up my Blizzard Pearl III today and brought it back to work.
    One of my managers, daughter said my car looks like a computer mouse.

    Being this is coming from a Goth teenager I took it as a complement. :p

    All my employees that have seen the car so far today are in love with it.

    Pics will follow when I get home and get the adapter for the chip.

    I heard the same comment but I can't remember who mentioned it now... possibly my younger son (6). I think I will strap on a section of hose off the back and see what kind of reaction I get. :D

    Frankly, I feel really sorry for that poor kid who thought your Prius looks like a computer mouse. Your manager should turn off his daughter's computer and tell her to go outside and play. There is a huge wonderful world outside of what is on her computer.

    Heck, I would love to have a computer mouse shaped like a Prius. :)

    Sounds like a great idea for a after market item.

    ALS, Congrats!!!

    When I got my '04, my wife said it looked like a hamster. She still refers to them as little hamsters running around.

    Beautiful !!

    Looks like a computer mouse? Well I guess it could after a few beers, crack, and a joint.... (Brings back memories of the 1960's - sex, drugs, Rock & Roll.)

    Congrats ALS. Beautiful pics.

    Actually, I think the Gen II looks like a mouse.

    And the Gen III looks like a Honda.

    15 year old says the Prius looks like a computer mouse?

    Ask her what car SHE is driving and what does it look like?

    Oh yeah...she's not driving ANY car. Tell her to mind her own business until she can afford to buy her own vehicle...something more substantial than a bicycle.
