I solved that very problem by just dimming the intensity of the display so
that I can still see it fine, but at maybe half of the brightness.

I will have to try that too. I only recently discovered that knob. At the
moment I am waiting to get plates on the car, having moved it overseas. So
it has just been sitting in the garage since Sept. 15th.

I'm sure what you are asking about is any hidden worry, like head gaskets,
transmission trouble... the sorts of things that give used car buyers the
willies. I don't know of anything like that with the 2005 Prius. My wife and
I have a couple of 2002 Prius cars (the sedan style) that are not even as
refined as the 2005 model, and they have been by far the most relaible cars
we have owned. Hers has 94K miles and mine has 120K miles, and neither one
has needed anything except routine maintenance, tires, and one windshield
apiece (this is Arizona, where windshields are consumables). No worries on
that count.

Cheers Mike,
I just pickup the car today, still getting use to it.
