We're just about past hitchin' season in the NW. Are you having a winter wedding, or do you have some brilliant plan to keep the wife from exploding while waiting until next summer?

I'm looking for a gen III Prius for the wife, although she gets 30 mpg in the 6-speed TSX. She might be going to OHSU next year, and PDX traffic is ridiculous. If I often battled Portland traffic, I would quickly grow tired of the 6-speed. My plan is to wait until the Gen IV is released and then see what happens to Gen III prices. I'd prefer to get a 2012 model since it came standard with bluetooth, among other things.
