Someone was sitting inside their 2006 Prius sorting thru some paperwork and
I happened to walk by. I've never had a chance to talk to someone in person
about the newer ones so I took a chance and the guy obliged. I learned he
travels a lot between western MA and the Cape, likes to drive fast and hard
(72 mph came up quite often), gets 45 mpg, and had nice looking side door
strips added to protect from dings. He showed me the camera's monitor (I
thought that was pretty cool).
His wife drives a Lexus. He drives a Prius.
I thought of you Natalie for some strange reason.
