    We just got our first Prius last night (Prius V five in Magnetic Gray) and are very excited! What a fun car. We are very appreciative of this forum as it has been helpful through the decision process....thanks very much!

    It is a bit hard to determine based on the trade allowance, but they gave me near retail on my trade (18500) on a 2009 CX/9 Mazda with 60k miles. My out the door cost was 30,300 with everything incuding mats, window tint, taxes etc. I bought it at Stadium Toyota in Tampa.

    So far (160 miles) my wife is getting 46.4 mpg with easy driving!

    Thanks

    A 2009 Mazda CX/9. A great car but 18mpg and honestly not much more room for the front and middle seat passengers. The third row was nice but only for small kids which also sacrificed cargo room.

    Thanks.

    Congrats on your purchase! We also purchased our V in Tampa ... although we went with Clearwater Toyota vice Stadium. I actually ordered a V from Stadium and then finally cancelled the order when they changed the price 2x after we had already negotiated an OTD price and also changed delivery dates multiple times. Fortunately it sounds like you had a better experience with them.

    I was fortunate that I have a friend who knows the GM there. I was able to deal with him directly and it really was a nice experience.
