    OK - winner gets a Very unique and collectible Toyota Prius keepsake.

    A watch that says Prius across the face. How about that? I'll donate the spoils of the pool to any charity you all agree on!

    Can you be more specific? I'm not sure what you are asking me.

    A different dealer told me today that the ordering process will begin on October 19th. Has anyone else been given this date?

    They also pointed me to this page, which has more information on the ordering process (from the dealer's perspective):

    Dealer Training link step 1 #3 shows Carson Toyota on the map as #4. Who would have guessed. Ha Ha. Ok it's just a map of all plugin dealers near Long Beach.

    Has anything new been added to the Accessories page? I still don't see prices when I view this page.

    I've been seeing the accessories page for a while now actually. I was shocked to see the illuminated door sills are not shown as an option. Have they been done away with in general Dianne?

    Light up door sills

    I'm surprised not to see them either but they might be available to add later. Maybe they are going to be a liottle battery drain they can't justify.

    You won't see pricing for these accessory type items on ANY Toyota accessories list page. That's not how they post them on their website.

    I'd use the current Prius accessories as a good estimated guide to their pricing on PHEV.

    I'm pretty sure they're LED in the door sills though so the drain would have been negligible. The incandescent interior lights would be worse. I've gotten used to them on my 2010 and don't know if I would want to spend the extra on them again but like I said, I'm used to them. They really are a neat little thing I'll probably miss once gone...
