Hello, and I'm happy to join this forum, having just traded in my old 2002 Prius for a brand new 2005 model two days ago. I love the way it drives, and am VERY happy with the increased trunk space and roomier interior!
I bought an intermediate model which had the smart key option, cruise and stability control, but no navigation system. Can't remember all the letter designations I'm hoping that someday I can add one in after-market.
I was very lucky because the normal waiting period for one of these cars is about a month...certainly better than the 4-6 months it was last year. However, there happened to be one car on the lot that had been ordered by a customer who supposedly changed their color spec at the last minute. By coincidence, it was a silver one, same as my old Prius, so what could I do but buy it. So far the odometer is at 75 miles
.
Pity I have to service it every 5000 miles instead of every 7500 the way I did the old Prius, but I think thats a small price to pay. I love the car!
