Default Potential 2006 HCH Noob Question

Folks:

Since I am somehwhat close to purchasing a 2006 HCH I was wondering if I could ask a favor. I see alot of definitions and acronyms that I quite frankly have no idea what people are talking about such as EV.

Is there anyway someone who has some time to kill could state the definitions of all the acronyms and what they mean as well as some of the phrases y'all use? Sometimes I have no clue what y'all are talking about.

I think that it might help me as well as a few of the other potential hybrid drivers out there. If there has been a thread about this in the past if you could just point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Thanks

If there are any specific ones you could try using the search in the orange bar too. I didn't notice that for a few weeks. If you still have any questions I am sure there are plenty that will help!!!

So you know,

HCH I = 2003-2005 HCH
HCH II = 2006+

The I and II sort of evolved (I'm guessing because forum members also use Prius I and II to distinguish between the two).

Thanks Terry,

Yeah I got a real warm reception from a few folks when I made my first post here. (Sarcasm intended) My skin is pretty thick though so it didn't bother me. These folks are pussycats compared to some of the other message boards I frequent.

Thanks for welcoming me in. I appreciate it.

William
