    I'm new. I just got my Prius last Wednesday, and I LOVE it. It's quite a piece of technology! I found this site and it seems like a great resource so I thought I'd join up.

    Congrats on the new Prius! We'll need to know the color of course! I am still explaining all the technology to my husband who is usually the tech geek.

    Thanks! It's the red one (loved the color). I also updated my location as per your suggestion!

    Excellent Adams quote...

    It's not the Touring model and it's an '08. I was very lucky...I gave my deposit saying that I'd take one of three colors (red, blue, or black) and package 2 or 3. The dealer called me two days later saying they had a red with package 3 arriving. A week after that I was driving off the lot!
