Ah, she has an Advanced.

Could you live with this car with only occasional charging at public stations (that's the boat I'm in--I live in an apartment with no provision for charging, and I don't plan to buy a house anytime soon since I have to pay for school. Otherwise, I'm the perfect use case for a PHEV)?
Do you feel like cargo volume is limited by the larger battery?
Do you miss the second glove box, underfloor trunk storage, and under console storage of the Gen 3 Prius?
How's the wind and road noise?
Any visibility distortion from the wavy rear window?
How well does it autocross?
