Re: Prius re-design on the way?
"Improve blind-spot visibility! Redesign the back slightly so that the frame does not obstruct the most important area of visibility for changing lanes. It's not difficult." - SoopahMan
Try adjusting your side-view mirrors as indicated elsewhere in this forum. Eliminates blind spots entirely.
"different controls on the steering wheel - I'd prefer having stereo power, and a "mute" button, and climate fan up/down, and losing stereo "mode" and temp up/down (or button could do temp if in "auto" mode and fan if not)" - Sweetbeet
The MODE button turns the radio on if it's off, and if you happen to have a cable plugged into the AUX in the center console, hitting MODE until AUX comes up will basically mute the stereo. But honestly, how hard is it to hit the power button on the dash? Those who'd rather have a POWER and MUTE than MODE are the ones who only listen to one type of media - radio or CD. The rest of us like a little variety.
As for the A/C and fan, as I've tried a hundred times to explain to my wife, if you want the fan higher, click the TEMP DOWN button 2 or 3 times, and the reverse to turn the fan down. The system doesn't have a "cold / colder" A/C setting - it just has A/C on or off, and when it hits the temp you've selected, it lowers the fan. She just doesn't get it...

Change what & how I drive, not who I am. Rack 'em up.
