BC - Isn't that British Columbia? If that's the case, then Washington State is directly south of you, on the West Coast. Confusion must be because I used the wrong word. It should have been *your* and not *you're*. :o

Ah - I get it! I was referring to my Prius (this IS the Prius section, aftger all!) - A "BC" is a grouping of extras - you can read it "all of the above" - loaded, as it were.

So - A Seaside BC is the Prius with all possible options and a nice, sky-ish blue. Except I don't do colours.

Much as I would really like to actualy live in British Columbia... It is New York State in which I reside!

And you're right about your!

Oh, another thing -- am I the only member who did not get the BC? We got everything but the Navigation, CD changer and Bluetooth.

The gas inlet of the Prius is sized very tight to prevent gas vapors from excaping. There is a standard size for the nozzle on unleaded gas pumps. When unleaded gas was being phased in, the leaded gas pumps had the bigger nozzles that you could not accidently insert into the tank for an car that took unleaded only. With the standard size nozzle, the inlet of the Prius should not have any problems.

If some customer before you managed to drop the nozzle and bang it against the pavement, the tip of the nozzle may be bent slightly out of round. Most cars are more forgiving, but leak more gas vapor into the air as a result. Almost certainly, the pump out of spec, not your car.
