    Just bought a 2010 Prius V and am noticing a ton of road vibration in my left foot transmitted through the floor. Is this normal? Poor dampening?

    1. check tire pressure
    2. check tire balance

    And it all depends on what road, what wheels and what tires the car sits on.

    Agreed, if bought used, especially have the balance and tire pressures checked. And the road you are on could have quite an impact. But having had my 2010 for over 2 years now that is not normal.
