On my way to work yesterday on CA-85 northbound at I-280, I was one of 4 Prius' in a row - all with HOV stickers in the HOV lane. We were traveling at 70 miles per hour and all had big smiles on our faces. For those not familiar, CA-85 runs through San Jose, CA.

The number of Hybrid cars in Norhtern California is amazing, I see at least a dozen during my morning commute of 17 miles.

I think I saw a Prius once. It was in North Carolina. I almost cried tears of joy at seeing another hybrid.

Im seeing more and more here in the norhtern subs of Chicago. If anyone see's my super white 05 Prius traveling around the area (green hybrid license plate frame, and soon to have the plate "Mr Zippy") honk and wave !.. Dean

Here in the Quad Cities, I am beginning to see them daily. A couple of weeks ago, I met up with three other owners at the car wash.

They're all over Northern VA, where we're allowed to use the HOV lanes. It's a huge selling point.

Buddy of mine lives in the Quad Cities. Interesting area. hows gas mileage in the climate up there?

Southern California 405 Freeeway, Northbound. On my 25 mile commute this morning I had 25 Prius sightings, all with HOV stickers. Most of the HSD models still had dealer plates. Two Classics, 23 HSD.
