Avian Posted January 3, 2002 Share Posted January 3, 2002 My car is completely computerized, a 2001 Toyota Prius Prius.Toyota.Com. Its a Gas/Electric Hybrid car, and everthing is computerized. The Steering Wheel, the gas pedal, the brakes, the radio, the gps system, the AC, the continously variable transmission with zero shifting. Fun car :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
