Thumbs up 2006 Prius details

I just found a great link that outlines some of the changes in the 2006 Prius (Redesigned Instrument panel, Advanced air bags, optional leather seats....and more)

Nothing official, but the Dealer I went to told me they are expecting the MSRP for the '06 to be announced this week (week of 10/10) and expect the price to be ~$200 to $300 (1%-1.5%) more then '05.

A Tire Pressure Monitoring System can detect a significant loss in pressure in one or more tires and alert the driver by a warning light.
That is frikkin' sweet!

Does anyone on here have a '06 Prius on-order? I am asking as I passed a dealer today on my way to an appointement (so could not stop) and saw a car carrier full of Prius's being unloaded. Would dealers still be getting '05's ?

Yes ! I know because mine was just delivered today! Yahoo! I still have to wait till tomorrow to pick it up, but I got to take a look at it when I went to fill out my financing paperwork. I live in the North East, so I can say at least here, they are still arriving. I guess they were delivered to NY first, and then came to Massachusetts.

Hi Kim; now aren't you just the stuff.

Congrads: and I hope you will share your thoughts on your new (2006) Prius after taking delivery.

What about some Pics. Pics. Pics.

How low does the pressure have to go before an alarm sounds ? Or can it be set ?

I have read that the alarm valves that can be purchased in stores don't go off until tyre pressure is in the mid 20's .. Nowhere near good enough for my demands.

GREAT !!!

I saw the Cars being delivered in suburban Philly, so that make sense.

Now If I could get my eyes on a new HCH, I would be a happy man !!
