new prius owner

We bought a 2005 Prius this summer. We love it. I commute to work and get 53mpg. I'm sure I'll have lots of questions.

You might check out the FAQ over in the Prius forum. We're trying to keep it current with 'lessons learned'. Also, it is a good idea to track your mileage in the database. Over time, this will help you find what works and doesn't work.

GOOD LUCK!

ps. We've got a tour of the Toyota plant where they make Camry Hybrids scheduled for Oct. 8, Columbus Day. If you'd like to see how they are built, this is a great introduction.l
