My new Silver 2010 IV

Wow. I would have sworn you were talking about Illinois . Hopefully you can get it taken care of on Monday. Sorry for the delay, but your file wasn't expedited because it got put in the wrong stack. Normally, we send out the title within a day or so. I'm glad you called me so I could handle it right away.

 

Hi folks,i am from Germany and unfortunately are dealers don´t get the Prius until end of August so if you don´t mind i have a few questinos about the 2010!
First off, i think it ist a fantastic looking vehicle on wich i cant´t wait to get my hands on! Many owners of the Gen 2,here in Germany complain about bad halogen headlights ! (we didn´t get the Xenon option here ! ) Have they,by any chance, improved on the 2010 ? Is the small (good looking ! ) shifter iluminated ? And one thing what makes me wonder is,that nobody ist talking about the HUD ! I was asking myself what kind of information is displayed on the windscreen ! Don´t you get it in the US ? It will be standard here in Germany ! How good are the windscreen wipers ? I heare you get a special one for the passengers side so more of the passengers side is wiped! We wont get that in Germany! I also can not see any turn indicator lights planted in the rear-view mirror of the US version . Well,we dont get the cruise control in the standard version as you get it ! I hope someone of you new 2010 owners can answer my questions ! And by the way, congratts!

 

Whenever it is an out of state purchase, we generally process the paperwork the next day. Unfortunately, there was a mix up here. I know that doesn't make the pill easier to swallow, but at least I admit it rather than come up with some hairbrained excuse

And IL used to do 10 day, but last year changed it to 7. No idea why..

 

Thanks Jay for answering my questions !
It´s not so much that i wont the shifter to be illuminated but i wouldn´t mind it either! It looked to me it could have been so! As for the turn-indicator lights in the rear-view mirror,it makes you seen even better when there are 4 lights blinking in the front rather then two ! We are certainly getting them in Germay and i guess around Europe anyway ! i have a question about the touch tracer display ! When it comes to climate control it seems to be pretty useless to me ! According to Toyota the TTD was developed to make sure you keep your eyes on the road rather then having to look down to the Displays but if you for example change the temperature by using the TTD you still having to look down to the climate-display to see to what temperature you changed it or am i wrong and its displayed in the MFD at the same time? If not, then the same goes for the radio-volume !

 

For some reason, the silver looks a lot better on the Gen III than it does on the the II.

 

What a bunch of wimps, I am 65 years old an I drove my 04 Prius 924 miles in 15 hours yesterday on a trip back from Florida. Do you want your mommy to rub your back?

 

The seats fit some people, but don't fit many others because of lack of adjustments. There is no reason to deal with it when most other cars didn't have this issue.

Goody for you if 2004 seats are positioned fine for you.

 

Yes, the shifter is illumated by a small light in the overhead console. The light is very small and focused on the shifter. It looks more like ambient lighting for the shifter.
