    I gotta admit I was reluctant for years to buy a Prius- I always preferred having older cars.
    But after recently being stuck with leasing a VW Jetta- I kicked that baby to the curb, me and the wife bought today a new 2015 silver Prius 3 with solar roof package that we are very happy with at 24.5k OTD from hamer Toyota
    This forum has been of great help. And we are planning a cross country road trip with this smooth beauty.

    Question- any recommendations on tinting windows in the So Cal region- Los Angeles area? There are so many types of film and brands that it's hard to know where to start.

    :)

    Hamer is amazing with their prices. They were nearly $1000 lower than anyone else in the SoCal market. Not sure how they do it. I was quoted less than 22k otd on a Prius 2.

    I know and I shopped around in Manhattan beach, Carson, Santa Monica, culver city, Longo and still Hamer gave me the best OTD price by far with the least amount of hassle-
