    Just got an update from dealership #1 on Monday, added to their list on June 4th.

    Now at top of list, was offered two color choices I could have picked up already: Silver Pine Mica & Seaside Pearl. Neither of which interested me, so decided to hold out a little while longer for my 1st choice of Magnetic Grey Metallic Pkg 2. My other two choices are Spectra Blue Mica or Black.

    Trying not to second guess myself on the decision to wait (hopefully) a few more weeks, since I'm at the top of the list. As many of you have posted, "it's your money, and your decision, so might as well be happy with the color/pkg you want", so I feel secure in my decision.

    All else is ready to go: MSRP in writing, financing etc...

    I feel like calling dealership #2 and getting deposit refuned, but I had better wait untill I get the call its in before-hand. Even thought I have heard nothing from dealership #2, and I had to call them just to check in. I just feel uneasy about dealership #2, their original "estimated" time frame has well past (not that I mind - I understand the issues with availabitiy/production), they never called to give an update even to mention its going to be longer than they originally thought (coursey?), and the sales guy was kinda rude when I called just to check in, saying they he has our numbers and would let us know when its in and kinda cut off any further inquirys about anything asked.

    Does anyone have any advise? Leave it be or get ask for deposit back from #2, even though it could be awhile from #1 (not that I have a clue or update from #2).

    Thanks :rolleyes:

    Yes, take a Valium. :D Seriously, just chill out and wait a bit. All of your plans are running on track, so all you need to do is sit back and wait. You can get your other deposit back after your Prius is in your hands.
