Hi All:
___Most may not know Dennis Gaffney but he was the independent journalist out of Albany, NY who came along with us for Hybridfest 2006.

Dennis is the individual at the far left side of the pic with his thumb and index fingers in the air ;)
___Although HF2006 was an absolutely great time for all to meet and get to know one another, learn and see new things, teach, and to generally enjoy a weekend away from the real world, its real purpose was to promote Hybrid vehicles to a somewhat confused public. With that, the best thing that could have come out of Hybridfest was we all did out part to convince Dennis that a high FE capable vehicle, namely a Hybrid automobile, should be in his drive. When you look at the price above, I think you can tell he did it in grand style and at a huge savings as well! He was considering a Ford Focus station wagon for his family but after finding out about the benefits, driving with Hobbit in the Prius II, sharing hybrid stories with Terry, staying with Tony Schaefer at the Clarion, in Madison, he finally succumbed and has now became assimilated :D At the price he picked up the Prius II for, all I can say is he has one hell of a vehicle and for a price that we should all be envious of!
Base Prius II MSRP: $21,725
Destination Charge: $580
Amount under MSRP: $1,000
Tax Credit: $3,150
Total: $18,155 + tax!
___Good Luck
