    Picked up a certified preowned 2013 Prius Four not IV because uppercase roman numerals were used for model year 2010 Prius, from University Toyota in Morgantown WV. I saw the car online and it had it delivered to Texas sight unseen. The car is nearly perfect and working Lance Clark was awesome.

    Car the day i got it

    Congratulations! What made you decide to purchase out of state, better deals then in Texas, or is there a shortage of Prii in your area?

    What was the cost of shipping it from WV?

    I assume the price was substantially less than if you were to have bought in TX?

    I was looking for a iv or v and there wasn't many options available. I was able to get this one $2,500 less than I could find in Texas plus it was certified and the one here wasn't. I shopped around for about a month. It cost $800 to bring it to Texas so the total savings were about $1,700 plus the peace of mind it was certified.
