    A couple of months ago, I would have told you that car is overpriced by approximately $2K - $3K. However, my car broker friend told me that demand for the Prius is up and that the supply has tightened up, especially for the Touring model, since the time that Toyota was offering incentives on the Prius earlier in the year.

    It appears to be that way :-( Oh well, I guess I might have to pay the extra cash.

    Forgot to mention an interesting fact. Going down Death Valley (one of the two lowest points on Earth), for the first time I got all battery bars up and green. Then at a flat surface I set the cruise control at 35mph and it was using only the electrical motor! Very cool. It lasted for quite some time. Picking up MY Prius within 10 days! Can't wait.
