    Hey all Prius lovers. Don't lose your keys. I just learned form my dealer in TX that it would be about $400 for a new one. The key itself is about $200 and then comes the "programming". Is this a rip off or what? I think this outrage needs to be heard by Toyota execs. Does the Insight have $400 keys?

    Find a new dealer or look up how to purchase one and have it programed for much cheaper. Details can be found using the search button. :)

    FWIW, some of the 2-way remotes for high end alarm systems retail for $200 as well.

    He is obviously out of touch with reality so don't let him touch your car again!
