    So after getting our first Prius (Pine Green) in late March 08 to replace our Volvo S-40 that got smashed in a crash, we took delivery 2 days ago of a second Prius (Gray Magnetic). I traded in my Mazda RX-8 for it. The cars look great parked next to each other in the garage. We are loving the Hybrid life. :D

    I'm jealous. After we picked up our Prius in March, my wife said "Maybe someday we'll end up with two". That day probably won't come for 2 or 3 more years, but I'm looking forward to it. Enjoy.

    Hmm....we got our 1st Prius with trade-in our Toyota-Matrix last month. Eventhough we love MPG & built-quality on Prius ... we decide to wait for the next waves Plug-in or EV to emerge before getting back our 2nd car. In the meantime, I will take advantage of the Transit-system.

    Congratulations, Quark! Two certainly cuts down on the in-family Prius envy.

    You'll love it. We bought one in 2005 and put 70k miles on it and then a 2007. We had a van and a convertible and sometimes miss them but the two prius have so many pros they're clear winners. I retired in 1996 and love to travel. Good luck Twofer

    We became a 2 Pri family as well on June 16 and were loving every minute of it. We got our first one a magnetic grey last august and second time around decided on an option 6 touring.
