2012 Toyota Prius Plug-in Advanced

with Radar, Softex Leather, Premium Navigation, Backup Camera, Bluetooth, & HOV stickers valid until 2019

This is a Quiet car that runs normally either on regular Gasoline just like any modern car.  However it features an advanced hybrid System that allows you plug in the included power cord to any standard household electrical outlet (just like a cellphone or coffee maker). This allows the advanced battery to charge fully in 1.5-3 hours. This electrical added power lets this car get up to a mind blowing 1,000 MPG on short trips if regularly charged. On more typical longer trips the Gas engine will engage either at the driver’s choice or automatically when called for. Running in Hybrid Vehicle mode without any plug-in charging the car will still get a formidable 51MPG. The federal EPA officially rated it to expect a 95 miles-per-Gallon average for real world use fuel economy. My short trip test drives so far exceed the official Government 95mpg-e rating. I am currently able to exceed 300mpg. When I run short trips the dash displays 999 miles per gallon for drives when the gas engine is not used. Unlike other plug-in cars, This Prius can take endless long trips such as to far away states. It runs like a regular Prius and will still get 51mpg and does not require any plug-ins.

 

This car is very powerful and features a 1.8 liter gas engine running in parallel with a powerful electric motor. The electric motor by itself is powerful enough to move the car with brisk acceleration and if the driver presses the Power mode button then you have a very responsive beast of an automobile. The car is fully capable to drive at speeds in excess of the posted 80mph speed limits that are only in certain states. This car is designed to be a fuel saving car without giving up the luxuries.

HOV Stickers

In California this car has very special perks of being one of only 40,000 Plug-in hybrid cars permitted to let its driver travel All alone in the Carpool HOV Lanes. This is a BIG-Deal and makes this a popular choice for executives, celebrities, and professionals. Many of my prior HOV sticker car customers were CEOs, Attorneys, Family oriented types where time on the road is lost time. In a world where Time is Priceless, This car can pay for itself at full price in weeks or months. No need to bring along a guest because now you can drive alone in the HOV Lanes.

Act Now!!! The Government is only allowed to authorize 40,000 cars with green permits. As of December 31 2013 less than 11,000 spots remain statewide. That was 2 month ago and those remaining spots may already be spoken for by pending applications sitting in piles in the mailroom up in Sacramento. I am projecting that California will formally announce the green stickers are sold out in the next couple months.

Not for you to worry because this car has already been authorized so you can buy this car and guarantee yourself the right to bypass all that traffic starting right now.

Let’s examine the alternatives:

*Rot in Traffic?

*Buy a Pure Electric such as Nissan Leaf and suffer battery Range Anxiety= (worry if you have enough charge to make a trip)?

*Buy a Brand New Plug-in and cross your fingers and prey that the state won’t run out of HOV Permits before they get to your Time stamped application?

*Stay Home?

OR

*BUY this Plug-in Prius and never have to worry about any of that because you will be good to go on all counts.

 

Once all the permits are assigned, based on the gold sticker program people paid an extra $4,000-$6,000 over market value to obtain an HOV sticker permitted car. That same result is likely during 2014 after the green sticker allocations are done.

 

NOTE: the HOV stickers are Government issued numbered document sets assigned to specific cars. They are not owned. They stay with the car they are assigned (like License plates) to and can not be transferred to a different car. Anyone driving the permitted car is authorized to drive it in the HOV lane. Example: if you bought this car for a company, any employee or authorized driver of the company can drive the car solo in the carpool lane. The permits apply to the car regardless of who drives it. This time saving feature can give you a very significant time/money saving advantage in traffic congested areas. For some buyers these cars can pay for themselves within months.

If permitted cars stickers are damaged, they can always be replaced for an $8 DMV administrative fee.

Vehicle Payment options

I recommend that you pay by one of the following methods, Cash in person, Auto Loan Check, bank check, credit union check, and Auto Loan check, Bank to bank Wire Transfer, Account deposit, personal checks, Pay Pal, Visa, MasterCard, AMEX, or other secure methods.  Depending on the method you choose, I may require that funds must clear in my account for me to release the car.

Auto Loan Financing Options & $0 down payment options

I advise anyone who would consider financing this purchase to apply for an auto loan prequalification. You can & should apply with a credit union or bank in your area of your own or select one of the trusted lenders that I have provided on the list below. The most important thing that you need to keep in mind when looking for your lender is that you will be purchasing from a California Licensed dealership (in my case). Most Banks and credit unions would be happy to work a loan with us. Make sure that your lender understands that you will be making a traditional dealer purchase. If you are not a California resident then advise you lender that this will be an interstate transaction.  You may Select 1 or more lenders and apply for a Loan Pre-Qualification.  The Lender or credit union will tell you your maximum limit. Just bid up to your Qualification limit. Above that you will probably have to pay out of pocket or by credit card.  Just remember that depending where you live you will likely have to pay 0% up to 11% for registration of the vehicle.  Many lenders will give you an allowance for any needed fees to accommodate a zero down purchase. If you are approved, these lenders are all independent and nonbinding to my dealership.  You may use these loans to buy any Vehicle not just my Vehicle. The Lenders below have all funded auto loans to our customers within the last 6 months. Most have been very helpful and easy to work with.

Recommend lenders including Pentagon FCU offering 1.499% APR for 60 months & USAA for Almost instant loan approval & Funding

Can I put the whole price on a credit card?

The new credit card laws now

If you want to charge over $500 to a credit card, The best method may be to submit a Balance Transfer Request to your credit card company. Your credit card company may be able to issue us a printed balance transfer or convenience check for up to the available limit on your credit card. We would set you up a temporary 10 day loan while your balance transfer is processed. The temporary loan would require the vehicle be held as collateral until we receive clear funds from your credit card provider. We may charge a Loan Origination fee for this method.

Alternately, You can do a Balance transfer or cash advance from your credit card to your own bank or credit accounts to generate the necessary capitol.

Balance transfer may offer you interest rates as low as 0% APR depending on your credit provider.

What type of buyer protection do I have if I buy this specific Vehicle?

·        A Money back guarantee option is available on this vehicle (You won’t get that with a new vehicle!)

·        EBay offers $50,000 of buyer protection

·        I am a Bonded dealer in the state of California (Bonded means that I myself have a $50,000 transaction insurance bond on file with California Department of Motor Vehicles)

·        The jurisdiction for this transaction is in California. California has the strongest consumer/financially interested parties’ protection laws in the world.

Toyota engineer warns automous cars could increase fuel use, urban sprawl

Fri, 18 Jul 2014

An increasing number of people are starting to consider the potential downsides of a transition to autonomous cars. The FBI is already looking at them for the potential ill effects on law enforcement, and a scientist for Toyota is raising the possibility that driverless vehicles could actually be detrimental to the environment over the long term.
Ken Laberteaux, who studies future transportation for Toyota, thinks that autonomous cars could lead to more pollution, not less, says Bloomberg. However, Laberteaux's theory isn't so much based purely on science as it is considering behavioral and historical trends. "US history shows that anytime you make driving easier, there seems to be this inexhaustible desire to live further from things," said Laberteaux during a presentation at the Automated Vehicles Symposium in San Francisco, CA, cited by Bloomberg.
Laberteaux's belief is that if commuters can make their drives easier, then they will be more willing to live farther away from the cities where they work. The end result would be more urban sprawl and increased pollution from the longer travel times.

Toyota mulling Cummins diesel for Tundra?

Mon, 02 Sep 2013

When Bloomberg spoke to Toyota USA Sales CEO Kazua Ohara recently, we highlighted his comments on the possible return of the Toyota Supra. However, the interview started with Ohara discussing the Tundra, and how it would take time to pinpoint and hone the pickup truck's brand image in the minds of consumers. That effort could get a boost, with a report in Edmunds saying that Toyota is "evaluating" the addition of a Cummins turbodiesel to the Tundra's engine options.
The Cummins powerplant is one of two options for the moment, the other being a hybrid powertrain. If the oil-burner got the thumbs-up, Toyota would follow the recent example of Nissan, which announced it would put a Cummins turbodiesel into its 2015 Titan. While the two Japanese companies make a closer comparison since they're both talking about Cummins applications in light-duty trucks, if it happens, it could be seen as further diluting the once-exclusive tie-up that Ram trucks has had with Cummins even though Ram has used Cummins in its heavy-duty truck.
Toyota hasn't said when it will decide on which direction to take, but either will be a move for the better in the view of segment watchers; PickupTrucks.com said the first of its top-five fixes for the Tundra would be a better engine, perhaps a diesel-electric hybrid from Toyota's Hino unit. Cummins told Edmunds it can supply a second manufacturer with the 5.0-liter diesel that Nissan will be using, so we wouldn't be surprised to see it end up in a Toyota or somewhere else.

Union to launch Toyota organization drive in Canada

Sun, 12 Jan 2014

Toyota may be heading toward some labor issues in the Great White North, as employees at a pair of Canadian Toyota factories may be set for a certification vote. The Unifor union, which was the result of a merger last year between the Canadian Auto Workers and the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers union, will be holding the vote.
Over 40 percent of the employees at the Woodstock and Cambridge, Ontario factories have signed union cards, cresting the minimum percentage required to instigate a legal certification vote, according to Reuters. The Woodstock factory is responsible for RAV4 production, while Cambridge builds the Lexus RX350 and RX450h, as well as the Toyota Corolla. The two factories employ nearly 7,000 people.
It's unclear when the union will hold a certification vote at the two factories, but what is rather clear are the worker complaints. Employees are concerned about workers being hired on temporary contracts which lack the benefits of full employment, John Aman, head of organizing for Unifor, told Reuters.
