#68 of 98 VSC or No VSC by grangertech Mar 09, 2005 (10:07 pm)
I am buying a Prius tomorrow (3/9/05) with package #3. This package does not have the VSC option. I'm wondering if anyone has experience driving a package 3 vehicle during the winter - snow - ice...? Am I likely to wish I bought a car with VSC given that we do get snow here in New Mexico? BTW, one of the dealers in Albuquerque is selling for list - no mark ups!

Replying to: gagrice (Mar 08, 2005 7:11 am) Side airbags are not standard on the 2004 or 2005 Prius. They were added on the higher priced packages.   Side airbags are included in packages 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6. (Package # 1 is the cheapest package, a $262 adder.)   jprice SoCal '05 Silver, #1, 2800 miles, cum. mileage 46MPG Replies to this message: jprice (Mar 10, 2005 1:17 am)

#71 of 98 Trying to figure out the audio options by felton1 Mar 10, 2005 (7:30 pm)
Hey guys   The more I look at the Prius, the more convinced I am that it will be my next car. I have been studying the Toyota brochure and all on-line information and I am a bit confused by the stereo information. On many Toyota models, they describe the JBL stereo at XM satellite compatible. No such mention with the Prius. The phrase "FM diversity reception" is used in conjunction with the Prius. What the heck does that mean? One last question...does anyone have their Ipod "connected" to either of these stereos? Some stereos seem to accomodate Ipod connectivity and others don't work so well.   Just minor questions, but I get far better information here on-line than anywhere else:)   Thanks!   Felton

Replying to: mountainman1 (Mar 06, 2005 8:03 am) Please let me know what you paid total... out the door.. but tell me what your tax is in Ga. I am still negotiating with a dealer in N.C. Sales tax is 3 % but without leather and a combo package that does not have the GSP or leather the price out the door it 24.778 Does this sound high to you ?   mltransue1 Replies to this message: apop (Apr 08, 2005 4:18 pm)
#73 of 98 Audio Options & leather by gnrb Mar 26, 2005 (7:43 pm)
We were told that the Prius is not satellite compatible as far as sitting the receiver in, like the other models. You have to mount it.   Curious about this leather situation. Another dealer said they did leather as a add-on after purchase.
#74 of 98 adjustable auto-leveling? by jmerel Mar 30, 2005 (4:41 pm)
Replying to: midnightcowboy (Oct 27, 2004 7:57 am) My Prius has auto-leveling headlights and I'm constantly getting flashed by oncoming traffic. Is there any way to adjust the auto-leveling to be a little lower? Replies to this message: priusproud (Jan 08, 2006 11:21 am)

Replying to: mtransue1 (Mar 12, 2005 11:28 am) If you can travel to VA, you will find discounts and lower "Documentation fees", also known as "ADP" (additional dealer profit.)   The SE Toyota master distributor is notorious for adding unwanted addons such as Toyoguard and other high markup accessories.   I've read elsewhere that someone purchased a Prius in VA for $1,800 off MSRP. From my own experience, I purchased an '05 3 weeks ago in VA with immediate delivery and $700 off MSRP.
#76 of 98 Re: Well if it dates back to the 1940s ... [mfullmer] by searchguy Apr 12, 2005 (5:26 pm)
Replying to: mfullmer (Oct 28, 2004 2:33 am) Consumer Reports has an interesting article on HID headlights. There does appear to be more of a concern with glare, which apparently is more noticeable to older eyes (over 50). Check it out: http://www.consumerreports.org/main/content/display_report.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=40005- 7&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=333137&bmUID=1113354931726 Replies to this message: gagrice (Apr 13, 2005 7:21 pm)

Replying to: searchguy (Apr 12, 2005 5:26 pm) more noticeable to older eyes (over 50).   I hate those lights. The sooner they are outlawed the better off we will be. What happened to regulations. I see some very unsafe cars with lots of added equipment. I guess cops are too lazy to ticket them.
