Ordered an 2010 last week

[problemchild]

My 08 dealer took my order for the 2010. So I guess Im first on the list for a 2010 at the largest dealer in the country. Hope it has better seats so I dont have to move my volvo seats over from my 08.

I cant wait......

I 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th that ....I was at Piercey Toyota yesterday, a huge, new dealer in Milpitas ... I opened the driver's door on a Corolla, Yaris, Highlander, Scion XB, Matrix, Rav4, ....every one of those cars has a driver's seat with the handle to raise and lower the seat bottom

....then the Prius, no matter what model, base, package #6, Touring, whatever, you will not find a shred of any handle to raise and lower the seat....this cannot happen again on the 2010 model.

Since the 2009 will be carryover, I don't expect to see a 6-way adjustable driver's seat, but the 2010 .... such a simple thing too ... a simple ratcheting mechanism in the seat to raise it and lower. It's scary why they did not include this simple feature in 5 production years so far on a 2nd generation of the car in the US. It's like they're so darn caught up in the technology, they forgot the very simple aspect of making the car more comfortable for the person it matters to most - the owner and driver of the car. A case of the absent minded professor - solving Astrophysics problems, but forgets to tie shoelaces btw, Priuschat folks, get used to hearing this rant.

It is more like you are first on the waiting list. No one is ordering the 2010 yet. I am number two on the list at Burt Toyota in Denver and it cost me 500$ to get on the waiting list

No I placed an order. I had to pick the color and package. It was entered into the computer. I did not have to leave a deposit either.

how? Toyota hasn't devised the packages have they? So you know what features are on your 2010 Prius?

The color chart for the 2010 was officially released.

How do you order something without leaving a deposit ?

yeah I know. I'm talking about features. If he said he ordered including the package then he should know what options in the package that he's ordering, right?

Sounds logical to me, I know I would never order anything unless I knew exactly what was included in the package.

2010 will be special, and I heard Prius might be a model by itself like scion
