    Avondale Toyota has a link at the bottom of their main page with an updated story and link to the video shot on 6/2/2009 (Actual delivery was 5/30). Priuschat.com gets mention here, and my kids are incredibly cute in their responses as well!

    Spinnr, that was a very good video. He is a Prius expert and now owns all three generations. He is a Private Pilot and that I do respect being one myself.

    He has a beautiful family and that one daughter looks just like her mother!!

    Thanks for telling us your story.

    Actually, that's the day I traded in the Gen I for the Gen III.

    Great job Rick.
    Beautiful cars and a beautiful family.
    I always thought the most asked question was "how much will the batteries cost and how long will they last?"

    Good on you Rick, It was a pleasure watching.

    I sure wish my dealer was like yours Rick, as I am sure others do as well! Your dealer really makes the buyer feel important. :)

    That is a rarity among all dealers. They are more concerned for the money they make than the deal you get.

    Funny thing is the marketing org that did this vid had contacted me well before delivery to get this set up. I think we threw them off a bit when my car arrived a few days early ;)
