    Hi guys/gals. Wanted a Prius in 2007. Wife wanted a FJ. Humm! So we bought a new 2008 FJ. Took delivery 4/13/2009 of a new Pirus. MAG Grey. PKG 6 touring. Love the car. NAV unit has a steep learning curve compared to my two Garmin units. But we will get it figured out. My wife and I live fulltime in our RV. Currently parked in Granbury, Texas. I am a retired American Eagle Airline Captain. My wife Coleen has her own insurance agency.

    I am Aqua-Hot qualified and do service on Coaches part time.

    Thanks for letting me in. :usa2:

    Thanks for the quick response. Dropped into Alaska once in the middle of the night/middle of the day in a UPS aircraft. BRRR!!!.

    Hey there jrelkins1, if you don't mind me asking how much did you pay for such a car. We're interested in a package 5/6 Magnetic Grey and we are just wondering how much they're running recently.

    Hope you don't mind me bumping in here PFTP; I saw a new 2009 pkg #6 on "special" last week for $25,400. Bet you could negotiate down a little from there...

    Wow that's a fantastic deal. We're probably going to be purchasing late June/ early July and we really hope that there is still a good stock of 2009's available for those kinds of deals because I'm hoping to only spend max. 25k and I really would like a package 6 LOL. So let's hope that these deals hold out and maybe get better but I'm not sure how much better they could get.
