I should have said I am "" buying "" the car. My parents would probaby just give it to me, but I am " buying " it so my mom actually goes out and finally buys something nice for herself.
this was quite a thread, i don't envy oral surgeons. all the best with your new to you prius! 2008 was a beast, you should get many happy years out of it.
I have to respectfully disagree with this. I just saw 6 ( six ! ) gen 3 Prius in less than 15 minutes. Two were even parked beside each other, with a third parked around 75 feet from the others. 2011 - 14 and one 2015 ( based on tail light design. ) I got home to my apartment and noticed my neighbor has blue 2012 ish.. I look up to see another driving by. And then I noticed my neighbor on the other building also has one too. On a daily basis, I will see at the very least two to three drive by on the road behind the store where I work. Perhaps they sell to all the suckers here in Austin. BTW, there also happens to be a fellow that has a gen 1 Prius and I see him regularly on the same road behind the store. ( Just thought that was pretty cool to see it .) Believe it or don't, I see about twice as many 3rd gen as 2nd gen cars around here. Does that mean they are reliable cars since I see so many ? Of course not. But it is an honest observation.
