I'm the second owner of this 2010 Toyota Prius.  It's in good condition with about 78,000 miles.  I bought it from the original owner (a doctor).  I've driven this on quite a few long trips.  It drives great, gets amazing gas mileage, and is EXTREMELY reliable.  I've never had an issue.  My local Toyota dealership did a free test on the battery and found it to be in excellent condition with minimal degradation.  They told they only replaced 2 batteries on the 3rd generation Prius.  Both batteries had more than 200,000 miles.

FEATURES:

Features include:  Gray leather seats, bluetooth, power windows/locks, upgraded JBL stereo system, cruise, XM satellite radio.  It has the push button start with smart key.  You can keep your key in your pocket or purse.  Awesome feature.

CONDITION:

It has wear and tear typical of a car of its age and mileage.  It has some dings, dents, and scratches.  It looks great though and still shines like a new car.  No accidents!  There is a small, repaired hole in the driver's seat base (caused by a small key attached to a belt loop).  OEM leather was placed between the hole and cushion.

CONFESSIONS FROM A FORMER PRIUS HATER:

I used to get stuck behind Priuses no matter where I went.  I used to curse the name. However, my wife and I rented one during a vacation and we loved it. So, I bought a used one to be my wife's car.  I'm now sold on the Prius. These are the reasons:

  • It's easy to drive.  Turning radius is significantly better than any car I've driven.  Steering is smooth and seamless.  It has ample power.  In power mode, it drives like a normal car.
  • It's fun to play with the hybrid system. You can play with the power and watch the mileage go up.  If you are in heavy traffic, switch to EV mode.  While everyone is frustrated over the traffic and idling car, this car is operating off of its self-generated electrical power.  The regenerative brakes reduce wear and tear on your brake pads while charging the battery. 
  • It's well made.  I'm a Honda fan and unfortunately, this Toyota's fit and finish has Honda beat.  The interior screams quality.  Exterior sheet metal is light, but the car feels solid.
  • It's very roomy.  Back seats fold flat.  Cargo area is almost the same as a small SUV.  If you want to throw a lawn mower in there, you can.  If you're going on a weekend trip, it holds a ton of suitcases even with one of the rear seats up.
  • Cost of ownership is unbelievably low.  Suppose your driving a 15 MPG SUV and you drive 20 miles each way to work.  It costs you about $10/day for gasoline.  With the Prius, that commute now costs $2.50/day.  This car saves $45/week - $195/month - $2300/year.  I've ranged between 50-65 MPG in mixed driving.  It's actually quite hard to get lower than 50 MPG.  Depreciation is less than $1,000/year.

PAYMENT:

Payment is via certified check or cash only.  I have the title clear in my name.  The price is very good.  It is LESS than dealer auction prices!  You can probably find one with a lower price, but buyer beware - be very cautious of the prior rental Priuses and those with salvage or rebuilt titles.

Toyota makes $100M investment to boost Indiana Highlander production

Mon, 25 Aug 2014

Toyota has announced that it will be making a $100 million investment in its Princeton, IN factory in a bid to increase production of its popular Highlander CUV. The move will create 300 new jobs by 2016 and increase the total number of crossovers the plant can produce by 30,000.
Toyota currently builds the Highlander, alongside the fullsize Sequoia, at Toyota Indiana's West Plant. The additional capacity, though, will be sent to the East Plant, which is currently responsible for production of the recently refreshed Sienna minivan.
"The Highlander has been a great product for our plant," Toyota Indiana President Norm Bafunno said in a statement. "Establishing Highlander as the 'bridge vehicle,' as we call it, between the East and West plants increases our ability to meet customer needs for our outstanding products. This exciting news is a true testament to the capability of our hard-working and dedicated team members."

Trucks, SUVs — and Camry — shine in mixed U.S. January vehicle sales

Thu, Feb 1 2018

DETROIT — Automakers posted mixed U.S. new vehicle sales data for January, with American consumers continuing to abandon passenger cars for the larger pickup trucks, SUVs and crossover models that manufacturers also love because they are far more profitable. Total industry auto sales for the month rose 1 percent versus January 2016. According to Autodata Corp, which tracks industry sales, the seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) of U.S. car and light truck sales in January fell to 17.12 million units from 17.44 million a year earlier. Analysts polled by Reuters had expected a January SAAR of 17.2 million units. U.S. auto industry sales fell 2 percent in 2017 to 17.23 million vehicles after hitting a record high in 2016 and are expected to drop further in 2018 despite a solid economy. Interest rates are rising and around 4 million late-model used cars will return to dealer lots this year to compete with more expensive new ones. Automakers have used consumer discounts to boost sales, a growing concern for observers who say this undermines resale values and profits. Discounts declined in January, but remained above 10 percent of manufacturers' recommended prices. ""I think the industry has accepted that (sales) volumes will fall somewhat in 2018 ... and I don't think the industry is going to go over the cliff with insane incentives," Mike Jackson, chief executive officer of AutoNation Inc, told Reuters after his company, the largest U.S. auto retail chain, posted a higher quarterly net profit. Mark Wakefield, head of the North American automotive practice for consultancy AlixPartners, had a gloomier perspective. The industry's less-than-stellar sales performance for January showed "we are now past the peak," he said. "Automakers are now selling the deal instead of the vehicle," he said. "That's a tough spot to be in because that treadmill is hard to get off once you're on it." General Motors January sales rose 1.3 percent, driven by a 16 percent rise in fleet sales. Sales to consumers fell 2.4 percent. GM posted strong gains for models such as the Silverado pickup truck and Equinox crossover model, while its passenger cars continued to struggle. Ford The Blue Oval posted a 6.6 percent sales decline for January, with retail sales down 4.3 percent. Sales of Ford's F-Series pickup trucks - America's best-selling vehicle brand for decades — rose 1.6 percent. Passenger cars were down more than 23 percent.

Toyota hits 10 million Camry models sold in US

This year marks 30 years of sales for the Toyota Camry in the US, and in that time, it has amassed more than 10 million sales. In its first year on the market, the Camry sold 52,651 units, but it has gone on to become the best-selling car in the US for the last 11 years.
Toyota says that "virtually all" current Camry models sold in the US are made here, and three-quarters of all Camry contents are domestically sourced.
