    Saleswoman says they only get one Prius a month from Toyota
    :angry:
    I ordered Light Blue
    Package 3
    I don't know my number in the wait list.
    Any ideas how I can speed it up?

    call around. go out of state. I decided 2 weeks ago to buy one and even though every dealer around town initially said they had 6 week waiting lists, somehow when I said I was ready to buy TODAY cars "materialized" at several dealerships. The salesman all said some "orders had fallen through".

    Last week on this chat board, someone gave a link to a dealership in Tulsa (I think) that had 6 for sale at $500 under MSRP. I just called my salesman in Maryland and he told me that there are 3 at his dealership today for sale; red, tan and white all with package 7. he told me that package 3 cars are extremely rare because Toyota likes to load them up so if you go with that selection you may wait a long time

    if you would like more info let me know

    Hmmm.

    As someone currently ON a waiting list, I'm wondering how many times this "orders had fallen through" really translates to "We'll just tell Joe Schmoe that there was a factory or shipping glitch & his car will be a month or more late."

    I have nothing against shopping tactics, tweet, I'm expressing a concern about the methods of dealers.

    Thank you Marty. After I posted in June, I did put orders and $500 down at two Toyota dealers, much larger shops. They both promised me a car within a short time. Have not seen it yet. edunlap

    There are forums for gen 2 to 4 and for the c, v ,and prime. There are often sub forums within the main forums.

    For some reason no one can explain, gen 1 is hidden within gen 2 forums.
