    it doesn't matter what you owe at the end of the year, it only matters whether you've pais ANY taxes. it's a credit, not a deduction, so if you have paid $4,500. or more in total for the year, you get a credit of $4,500. and a check back. if you still owe $4,500. or more at the end of the year, you can deduct $4,500. from your payment. i'm retired, living on bank interest, but even at 50k in income, you're still paying 15% or so. that's $7,500.unless you have serious deductions.

    Our combined Fed/State tax is 57 cents per gallon. I should've bought a Prius 12 years ago... instead of that gas-guzzling V6 Camry that Dianne sold me. :LOL:

    I spoke with Dianne at Carson Toyota and was just quoted MSRP minus the rebate.

    So the price is pretty much the same anywhere at this time.

    That said, Dianne has been very responsive and most professional out of all dealerships.

    Just don't expect to get a better deal.

    There has to be a better way than to have to post updates daily.
    GRR :mad:
    Sorry to have to re-post but Priuschat won't permit me to edit a post older than a few hours old. :(

    Nov 16th @ 8pm update:

    (I have eliminated the sold/delivered and pre-sold cars)... I have already sold 7 Prime since they started arriving a week ago.

    Here's what's arriving very soon and still available:

    Advanced:
    Gray/black (arriving after Thanksgiving)

    Premium:
    Blizzard white pearl/black (arriving this weekend)
    Blizzard white pearl/black
    Magnetic gray/black (arriving this weekend)
    Magnetic gray/black
    Silver/black

    PLUS (Base)
    Titanium Glow/black (arriving this weekend)
    Blizzard white pearl/black
    Hypersonic Red/black

    I have no-added markup deals for these, considering the horrible 3% average profit margin in them. I also help with the state money application as well as the federal tax credit details. And, we assign plates here quickly for faster HOV decal getting.

    Interestingly, I checked the 2017 Prius inventory at a large Toyota dealer here in the mountain west (high desert) and virtually every vehicle had the moonstone interior ..... compare that to black one the west coast.
    A black interior is unbearable in the high desert.
