    I was surprised and disappointed yesterday when I visited my Toyota dealer in San Bernardino, California, and found 20 Prius on the lot waiting to be purchased. I had been aware that Prius sales were slowing, but to find this many sitting on the lot was a jolt. I wonder if this is typical of dealers all over the USA.

    North Texas dealers, beginning in November, seemed to have from 6 to 10 Prius on the lot ready for immediate delivery. Looks about the same in late December.

    The GOOD NEWS: A North Texas purchaser could get a good trade offer and a discount off MSRP. My new 2007 Touring Edition Package 6 Option A was delivered November 11th with a very good trade offer for my 2004 and a discount off MSRP on the 2007. It did take the dealers a few weeks to "wake up and smell the coffee" since they had been conditioned to getting MSRP + "market adjustment" for so long.
