I Ordered a Blue One

I wish there was a "Prius Tacker" program online... like a realtime flight tracker that lets you track flights, but one to track your new car as it progresses towards the dealership

very cool... I'm glad you took the effort to make a difference.

I've driven one before, not bad, but I found the MFD to be too distracting what with all the digital stuff and digital speedometer...

I've often wondered about the life and enviormental cost of replacing the batteries on those, but frankly we need to begin getting in the mindset that alternatives to regular combustion vehicles are viable options!

congrats again!

Batteries are warrantied to 8 years.

Ad that MFD? It is like porn for pilots!!
Not distracting at all in relation to a day in the ol' Lear. It is all relative, y'know?

'tis all relative

too true!!! porn for pilots!!! lol.

but for my earthbond-analogue-self it was like an evil boob-tube that sucked me right in! ;-)

Prius Hacking

I DO know about that!

Only in America

It's sold in 'electric-primary-mode' everywhere but America. Did the big oil companies hire a safety firm to say the car would not be safe if operating primarily on electric? In either case, I wonder if this could void the warranty?

Awesome for you!

My wife and I are trying to decide between a Prius and the Highlander Hybrid. More like we're trying to come up with a reason that a Highlander would make sense for us....

I Just picked up my new custom 64cm Calfee last week. Ordered it 10 weeks ago. 250 miles on it the first week.

It videos your behind? That's an awesome feature for the car's MFD. I'd like to see a demonstration of that on the Internet! :P

Damn, the new Priuses sounds really nice. If my car weren't only 6 years old I'd be really thinking about one now.
