  1. Ron,

    Set me back 26K. That was for the base model, which is fine for me, plus a full 7 yr, 75K warranty which I paid an extra grand for.

    I only put on average 8K per year on my car so this puppy should last a long time.

    Compared to my Mitusbish SUV, it gets a FULL 3x the gas mileage. Traded that puppy in and got more than I expected really.

    All in all, after the trade, I wrote a check for 23K. First car I ever paid for in cash. Kind of surprised the salesman when I whipped out my checkbook.

    I will say that if you have a Costco membership, it is a pretty good deal. No haggling, there is a base price that is agreed on and it saved about 850$.

    They dont negotiate on Prius's given the demand so it was a very good deal.

    I am still going to make a carpayment...but I am just going to pay myself every month. :)

    J
