Separate names with a comma.
I'm thinking about a Gen 4 with a lot of the new safety equipment (blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise, etc.). Anyone in the Gulf States...
Do either of them use HSD? What is the improvement in mileage in these vs. the non-hybrid models? Thanks

Not an unusual business strategy in many technology fields over the past century or so.
bisco and Jeff N: They'll stay that way until the Hindenprius disaster, which will cause everyone to change to helium.
austingreen: Bad joke alert--I just made that movie up. But I do seem to remember creatures with eyes on stalks, and maybe plantlike monsters...
austingreen: Weren't "stalk shifters" monsters from "Attack of the Giant Celery"?
That's true, but there are enough Gen IIIs here for me to know its a significant part of their business.

So I bought a new keyfob battery at the place where I bought my 2010 Gen III. I asked one of the guys in the back room when the new Priuses would...

All the sight lines, especially what were the blind spots in Gen 3--side rear, both sides. Others (though not me) had troubles with the front...
Sergiospl posted this in a thread in the Gen 4 forum, and I thought it deserved to be here in the News forum as well: from HybridCars.com:...
It still doesn't quite make sense to me, unless the tire effects are huge, or there are some differences between the 2 ECO and other models that...
I don't get modern option packaging--not just Toyota. So why is it that TSS (which I want) is standard on the 4T, but on the 4 you HAVE to get it...
In the US, bisco is clearly right about the strategy. For example, the option I most want, blind spot monitors, is available only on the 4 and 4...
akhare, Glad to hear you are getting a deal based on the sticker price. IIRC, when Gen 3 came out, there were several months before prices came...
