Prius 2007: When?30 Apr 2006 14:46 GMT3
Does anyone know when the new 2007 will be out.  Will navigation system
be the same: has anyone used theirs, and what do they think.
Removing Bugs29 Apr 2006 03:03 GMT4
Waxed my black 2005 yesterday.  It looks like new, thanks to finally
removing last summer's bugs from the nose.  I'd tried everything I could
think of to get that bug debris off without success.  Dealer recommended the
"Gunk" brand of tar and bug remover.  It comes in a spray can ...
Ford Reflex28 Apr 2006 23:49 GMT6
Have any of you checked this out?  Egad!  I wonder what the
price will be--and when it will be available.  Don't like
those doors though...  Here are some pics and some prose:

Synthetic Oil?26 Apr 2006 04:54 GMT8
Any advice on using synthetic oil?  I have an 06 Prius, coming up to the 5K
mile oil change.  My prior experience with synthetic oil has been great ...
saved the engine when my wife tore the oil pan off ...
Comparison of prius with Corolla LE25 Apr 2006 14:02 GMT19
Consumer reports, in the article here:
http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/cars/new-cars/high-cost-of-hybrid-vehicles-40

compared hybrids to their gas equivalents and looked at projected
savings (or not) in your fuel bill. In this article, they used a
Prospective owner23 Apr 2006 01:22 GMT31
I am seriously considering buying a Prius and I have a few questions
for you experienced owners. I'll post just one right now:
How far do you go on a tank of gas on the open road? I am thinking of a
road trip where I am driving at 75-80 mph all day. In my present car,
One of life's little joys20 Apr 2006 03:26 GMT12
Yesterday was a beautiful day in Massachusetts.  And I found
myself gliding along in that 99.9 mpg groove, running just on
the battery, with just a tad of wheel noise and the sound of
the air as the car moved through it.  The windows were open,
my poor WRX18 Apr 2006 23:08 GMT4
I just realized I haven't bought a tank of gas for my 2002 WRX since we
got our 06 Prius on 1/13,  Poor baby, it is such a great driver for
trips to the mountains, desert, or other places far from home.  But,
we've been doing mostly local driving, and the Prius has just won me
Bluetooth compatibility18 Apr 2006 02:31 GMT20
I am wondering whether any of you have reports re various
phones and their compatibility with the Prius's system?  I
have to change phones, and am looking at Verizon's
Bluetooth-compatible phones.  It seems to me that very few of
When to expect 3rd-generation?17 Apr 2006 00:16 GMT1
The president of Toyota has said they'll offer the 3rd-generation Synergy
drive in 2008.  This is supposed to be lighter (ergo, better mileage) with
better performance, and is supposed to cut the cost differential between
their hybrids and conventional cars.
Pushing Engine Too Hard?16 Apr 2006 05:03 GMT6
There's no rpm guage, and no engine temperature guage (in my '05).  So how
do I know if I'm pushing the car too hard?  We drove from Denver to
Glenwood, which involves some serious uphill sections, and I noticed the
engine noise getting pretty whiny at times...
going over bumps...16 Apr 2006 02:42 GMT14
My Prius seems to overreact when it goes over bumps.  I
frequently get the slippery road symbol, and even when I don't
get it, I sometimes feel the car reacting to the bumps.  Is
this an idiosyncracy of my car, or it is typical of Priuses

break-in period/mileage06 Apr 2006 02:01 GMT5
I think I have read that the Prius is not fully broken in
until 8000 miles.  At any rate, now that we are having some
warmer weather, I am seeing better mileage than I did last
fall--now the norm seems to be in the high 54-55-range (mostly
prius02 Apr 2006 16:35 GMT3
Je suis à la recherche de propriétaires de la toyota prius afin qu'ils me
répondent en donnant leurs impressions sur ce véhicule : conduite,
consommation, frais d'entretien, est-elle à la hauteur de sa publicité,
satisfaction personnelle, est-elle à recommander?
