That's nice and all, but he doesn't reply to my emails.

Kinda sketchy.

Hi Dave,

Actually the first email I have received from you was today...and I replied to it. Maybe you had the email address wrong?

Also, while its not the case this time since I know I have only received the one email...in many cases spam filters can catch my replies because "warranty" and "extended warranty" are triggers in many filters. So make sure and check your spam folders.

BTW, anyone should also feel free to give me a call. I am generally in my office from 9am-6pm ET, M-F.

Thanks Troy for extending this offer to us.  The dealer just called and was giving me the finall numbers prior to picking up my car on Jan 2nd 

They fully recommended me getting the extended warranty, the exact same as yours.  The difference being, they wanted $1,750.00 for the warranty compared to your $990.00.  I informed them that I already had an affiliation with a place whereas I could purchase the warranty for the $990.00.  The salesman connected me to their service department, where I repeated the whole affiliation explanation and said I wasn't even going to go through them for the warranty.

The service guy said that the $990.00 was cost, to which I said "I know".  Since they wanted to "keep everything under one roof", they agreed to give me the 7yr/100,00 miles/ $0 dedecutible Toyota Extra Care Platinum plan - the same exact one that Troy offers, for the same $990.00.

It was that easy to save $760.00.  It makes sense of why they would agree to match the price, after I had read a comment from Troy about a contest expiring on Jan 3rd, regarding the sale of these warranty contracts.

This is a great site.  I have been reading the comments for awhile now and finally decided to register recently.  I would rather read comments from the folks that drive the cars, then the ones trying to sell it.  Thanks again and kudos to the administrator for all his efforts.

Too bad you didn't buy it from Troy. Part of the proceeds go to PC and he is the one that gave us the deal originally. All it would have taken is one quick phone call or e-mail. It would also have helped Troy with his contest.

I'd suggest you cancel the contract you bought and get it from Troy instead.

Naw I sent 2 before that were titled "how do i know..."

it's all good though. Thanks.

At my current rate I'll be averaging around 20,000 miles per year, so I'd want 6 years/100,000 miles. I got a quote for somewhere around $860 but couldn't pull it off this year due to my high car taxes.
See what kind of price you can get on that...

We're looking into buying a new Prius and my wife drives around 750 a week. We'd also want the 6 yr. 100,000 mile warranty. Do you remember where you got the price on it for around $860?

Please do not use Troy's name or offer as a bargaining tool with other dealers. It is the official Toyota warranty and you will not find a better price.

Happy New Year!

Feel free to ask any questions you may have, we'll have a Toyota representative will be available to answer your questions.

A quick note from PriusChat concerning using our offer as a way to "pricematch" with your dealer.  Basically, please refrain from doing so.  Telling your dealer about this offer could lead to higher prices in the very near future or completely pulling the deal from this site.  Please read the message from Troy, our PriusChat Warranty Rep, below:

"...If anyone feels that they simply must give their dealer the chance to price match, at the very least, give us the courtesy of keeping us anonymous so you don't ruin it for everyone. Just tell them you have gotten a better price at another dealer, and leave it at that. Don't give them a copy of this thread or one of my emails with all the info they need to go crying to their factory reps about how much money they lost because of us."

I just took delivery of my first Prius, 2006 model, and I am going to buy the extended warranty offered on this site.

I am not sure I understand the benefit of the prepaid maintenance plan discussed here. The price is $670. When I read through my scheduled maintenance book and review the service plan details, I wonder if I will need to spend even the amount up to $670 on my Prius. It looks like all I do every 5000 miles on a Prius is rotate tires, change oil and filter, and then on the 15000 and 30000 and 45000 mile service I change the air filter too and do some lubrication. Can this possible cost $670 or more over a 4 year period?

I bought the 7/100/$0 deductible from Troy yesterday for the PC quoted price of $990 for my new 2006. I was quoted 7/75/$50 for $1450 from Hamer Toyota in Mission Hills, CA and I passed. Both are the Toyota Financial's Platinum Extra Care Extended Warranty.

A very quick and painless transaction. I even commented that going through Troy is a win-win for everyone. I get a great deal, he gets his, and even Prius Chat get a small finders fee (which I'm sure helps this site stay up and running). We both commented the PC is the best prius info site on the Web, so I was happy to support it and give a little back for all the super information I received here prior to buying my Prius.

Wanna see what Troy looks like?

I got my 2006 Prius yesterday, and this is my first post. I see that there has been some confusion regarding the "money-back guarantee" on the extended warranty, so I thought I would share what I learned from my dealer.

The "finance guy" at my local Toyota dealer offered me the 7/100/$0 plan from Toyota Financial Services for $1995, with a money back guarantee. He said that if I didn't make any claims, then I would get my money back at the end of the 7 years. He showed me two brochures. One was the official Toyota Financial Services brochure describing the extended warranty. The other brochure was from another company (I don't remember the name of the company) describing the money-back guarantee. I said "No thank you." He asked me why not, and I said that the price was too high. He then told me that offering me the money-back guarantee costs him "a lot of money," so he offered me the same extended warranty without the money-back guarantee for $1495. I again said "No thank you", since I knew from reading this forum that I could get it for a lot less.

So what he was doing was bundling the Toyota Financial Services extended warranty with a money-back guarantee offered by another company at additional cost.

I also have a question: Has anyone purchased the prepaid maintenance from Troy, and then used the coupons to get service at a local Toyota dealer? If so, did the local Toyota dealer give you any trouble, such as refusing to accept the coupons or charging you additional fees?

Prius Enthuiasts,

First, I'd like to say hello to to everyone. I've read this site since I got my prius 7 months ago and love the information. Such a great forum :-)

I've been reading up on the Extended warranty offered by Troy and have a question. I bought a 7 year/75k mile extended warranty from the dealership when I originally bought my 2005 Salsa Red Prius. I've decided that it makes no sense not to cancel that warranty and purchase Troy's offer. I called my dealership today to say I wanted to cancel and they informed me that as of October, Once you cancel a warranty, you are not able to re-purchase any warranty from Toyota.

This seems to contradict what I've read on here. Is the dealership lieing to me? I guess the best thing for me to do is to contact Troy directly, but I just wanted to check with you all to see if anyone else has had a similar experience.

Thanks, and I look forward to chattin 'bout hybrids. :-)
