The Modern Family test drives a Prius+

PriusA big thanks to the lovely folks over at Toyota for lending us a Prius+ for a week as part of their #toyotaschoolrun campaign.

We had a great time using the car to cart a gazillion girls around to football practice and various other school-related activities.

I've wanted to drive a Prius since the Hybrid car was all the rage in California for getting drivers a coveted "yellow pass" for carpool lanes!* I'm also interested in green issues, and electric/hybrid cars are the future.

So how did we get on?

The things we liked:

-The seven seats! With five of us in the modern family, we really need a 7-seater as we always have a grandparent, friend, or extra kids to cart around.

-The 3rd row of seats was very easy to use (Easier than our current car!). You basically just push them down and pull up.
