The manual for a Prius is a ridiculous 500+ page book.
...and thats not counting another big book just on the navigation system.
After a six month delay, where I putted around with a company car, basking in a no car payment lifestyle, I finally got around to acquiring a new 2008 Black Prius. Yay for me. |

The service manual on that thing must be several volumes.

Amazing. I watch Lost, too! Don't worry, I'm a lot more boring than even my internet persona.

Just sitting down in the car as they showed me a "quick" superficial rundown of how to work all the doo-hickeys and whatchamacallits and stereo and nav and bluetooth phone and smart key system and blahalhkajlfkj took over a half hour. My eyes glazed over after awhile and all I could think of is how bad this headache I have is and I haven't eaten in 9 hours. |

nonsense. i remember wishing there could be a way i could listen to your conversations with jared without you guys being aware just so i could hear how funny and not feel like a creepy girl for it either. i secretly love the magic bond between two men.

no, i'd like to hear about it though. i think three beeps would suffice, y'know? i didn't get mine with the gps or the nav system, though my friend did and there's a way to trick it into letting you input things when driving
