2010 Toyota Prius up for sale. It's in good condition with about 78,000 miles. I had it fully inspected by the Toyota Dealership in Annapolis and it was given the all clear. I've driven it up to Vermont a couple times and I wouldn't hesitate driving it across country. I purchased it from the original owner (a doctor) earlier this year. I don't want to sell, but I was transferred to the West Coast.

It has gray leather seats, bluetooth, power windows/locks, upgraded JBL stereo system, cruise. It has the push button start with smart key.

Full Disclosure: It has dings, a couple small dents, and scratches. It wasn't a city car, but it was used for commuting. There's a small hole on the driver's seat (caused by a key attached to a belt loop). I bought OEM leather to repair it but did not get around to it. For now, there's OEM replacement leather between the hole and the seat cushion. It is solely an aesthetic issue, the hole will not get bigger and you don't notice it unless you look at it.

I've ranged between 50-65 MPG in mixed driving. Over the last 20,000 miles, I've averaged about 52 MPG. That includes the lower gas mileage from the winter blend gasoline and the cold weather. Since the spring, it averages about 57 MPG. Toyota engineered a marvel - it's one of the most reliable cars on the road!

For the frugal folks out there. This Prius cost about $0.06/mile for fuel (@ $3.50/gal). Depreciation is less than $1,000/year. If you're a commuter, this car is an obvious choice.

Payment is via certified check or cash only. I have the title clear in my name. The price is actually less than what these sell for at Manheim dealer auction! See attached screenshot. The car will be available for purchase/pickup after September 14th.

Auto execs surveyed say VW, BMW most likely to grow

Thu, 17 Jan 2013

A new survey of top global automotive executives indicates both Volkswagen and BMW are the most likely to grow their market share over the next five years.
Tax advisory firm KPMG LLP has released its 14th annual Global Automotive Executive Survey, which includes responses from over 200 executives. A total of 81 percent of respondents said they expect to see Volkswagen make gains, compared to 70 percent last year. BMW, meanwhile, saw 70 percent of those surveyed say they believe the company will increase its market share. That's a jump of 7 percentage points over last year. This is the first time in the history of the survey that BMW has claimed the second-place spot.
Meanwhile, Hyundai has seen its perceived market share potential slacken for the third year in a row. Around 61 percent of those surveyed predicted gains for Hyundai, down from 63 in 2012. Toyota also has a surprising year, but for just the opposite reason. While the manufacturer had slipped in ranking since 2011, it enjoyed the largest increase of any company in the 2013 survey, jumping to 68 percent from 44 percent last year.

Toyota, Kaley Cuoco grant wishes in Super Bowl XLVII ad

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

For viewers who plan on watching the Super Bowl only for the commercials, here's one for you to enjoy ahead of time. As we saw in the teaser video that Toyota released last week, will be making the transition from Big Bang to The Big Game as a wish-granting genie in a commercial for the 2013 Toyota RAV4.
Though not as entertaining as the actual teaser for this commercial, it still garnered a couple chuckles from the Autoblog crew. We won't spoil it for you, but a word of advice: if Cuoco ever shows up in your driveway granting you wishes, we'd suggest you be very clear what you want... and enunciate.
If you want to see the commercial before this Sunday's game, we have the video (and an accompanying press release) posted after the jump.

Toyota mulling more Tundra, Tacoma capacity in TX

Tue, 17 Dec 2013

Toyota may be expanding its pickup truck production at its San Antonio, TX factory following calls from dealers for more Tacoma and Tundra models, according to a new report from Automotive News.
The San Antonio plant is currently able to produce 250,000 trucks on two shifts with overtime, while a secondary facility in Tijuana, Mexico can build an extra 50,000 Tacomas. Despite this capacity, and the fact that Tundra is a slow seller relative to the full-size trucks from Ford, Ram and Chevrolet/GMC (not to mention the Tacoma being part of a segment with diminishing sales), Toyota franchisees apparently can't get enough of the trucks.
"Dealers are telling us they could sell more Tacomas and Tundras," said Bill Fay, the general manager of the Toyota Division. "We are evaluating our footprint and capacity." According to AN, Toyota has moved over 248,000 trucks through November.
