    Thanks to numerous members on here to help me along with the decision. I got a the package I want and within budget!

    One thing I wasn't prepared for is extended factory warranty. Did you guys get one?

    Also if you guys are looking for one, I think I have some good info to share.

    Consensus here is "no way." These cars are among the highest in reliability:

    If you bought one, they have to offer you a refund if you ask.

    Congrats twin!!! We didn't talk warranty but I did not get it, big $$$ for a car with such high reliability... I didn't buy anything from the dealer but the car. No warranty, paint protection, interior, etc...

    Again, congrats and enjoy!

    You have a sexy as$ car!

    Factory Warranty wasn't $$$ and was actually very low. But I can still cancel.

    Just so you know, in California:
    Basic warranty is 3 yrs/36,000 mi
    Engine/Transmission is 60,000 mi
    Hybrid System is 10 yrs/150,000 mi

    An extended warranty doesn't add much coverage to a Prius. Yes, it's possible that you'll use it, but very unlikely. This isn't a Chrysler.
