    Hi Everyone.

    My name is Matthew and I bought a slightly used 2010 <five> in black. I was going from crapola car to crapola car for a while but finally I decided to "splurge" and buy myself something that's nice and get's good gas mileage (I commute 70mi round trip for work). I must say, I am quite happy with the prius. It's a very well put together car and now... well with this forum, I know there are tons of mods you can do... I'm sure the wife is happy :eek:
    Anyway, nothing new to my car yet. Still stock but I bought some LEDs for the parking, license plate and trunk light but haven't installed them yet. Just browsing through the forums for information and hopefully I will have something good to say when I get accustomed to the prius.

    Hey Buttowski, congrats on your new Prius V and welcome to PriusChat :welcome:

    I also bought a slightly used (demo) Prius III. Mine's been perfect after a year!

    Enjoy the high MPGs, technology and low emissions.

    Thanks everyone! I have found some very useful info on the prius. I was shocked to find out that there were so many enthusiasts out there.... even more shocked on what you can actually do to these vehicles.
