    I bought a Prius II a couple of days ago. Wanted a second car and Prius seemed like a good option with the mpg and standard features. Was initially concerned abt not having enough space, but the Prius is roomy and has good boot space. Its also a really stylish sedan.
    Had a questions for some of the members. When i bought the Prius, i got suckered into a $670 maintenance plan (4 years/45000 miles). But then later i saw in an ad and in the, toyota was offering complimentary 2 years/25000 miles (toyota care) for all newly bough toyota cars. But the dealer never mentioned anything about this. So i am not sure if the $670 was for the extra 2 years/20000 miles or did i get into a bad deal.
    Also i paid $2200 for a extended warranty of 10 years/120000 miles. Not sure if that was worth it either.

    Welcome aboard Ram! Sit back and enjoy the ride.

    I would think that the maintenance plan could be canceled without any penalty. Just read the fine print.
