The financial officer may want proof, but that does not mean one has to provide proof.  And, definitely do not mention the offer for members herein as Troy and Danny have requested.

Ok, I will just have to tell him I got a better deal and does he want to sell me the warranty at that price or not. So the ball will be in his court and he will have to answer deal or NO deal! (Love that show on tv LOL)

So either way if I buy from the dealer or on here I have up to 3 years to buy it right? If so I will want a bit to recover from shelling out the money for the car!

The Prius' mileage suffers a considerable decline if the car is used mainly for short trips.

[attachmentid=1564]Tracy,

I am going to do a test here, if I can figure out how to post a pic, it
will be of a fob. If it does not work, a fob is a little black square plastic
thing with three buttons on it, lock, unlock, and horn.

Yes, you do....3y or 36K, which ever comes first....but, the extended warranty that Troy offers here may have gone up in price by then. Then again, it may have gone down. I saw it go up $5 this year. Not much.

With SKS and the fob in your pocket, the car senses the fob
in your pocket as you get within close range. Then, when you
grab a handle, the door automatically unlocks. Then you get
in, and close the door and you can press start and drive away
because it senses the fob in your pocket. The car knows it is
you because it is sending out a signal that reads the code of the
fob and verifies it with the code in the car. Without SKS, you
would have to get the fob in your pocket or purse or whereever,
press the middle button to unlock your door, then insert the fob
in the slot near the steering wheel, then press start and drive
away. A few more steps involved, but still keyless in that you
are not inserting a key into the door to get in, but not entirely
perhaps because you are inserting a fob to start the thing.
With SKS you are keyless and fobless, and you can shut SKS
on and off from a button below the wheel if you do not want that
feature on at any point.
