Save your money!!! That is pure profit for the dealer and any benefits are marginal at best.

I can't find the instruction sheet I had that tells how to shut off the "Maint Reqd" light. Anybody know the procedure?

That is not documented in the manual. Do a google search and there are tons of sites which document the procedure. It automatically resets every 5000 miles.

MSRP reduced in Canada by grandtotal

Toyota Canada reduced the MSRP for Prius by $1900 yesterday. IMO they only finished what they started last September with reductions of almost $3000. It's now sitting about where it needs to be to stop Canadian buyers looking to buy south of the border.

For the Engine Oil Replacement Reminder on the '06 Prius, it is on page 130:
 
1)Press the "POWER" switch to "OFF" mode with the odometer reader showing.
 
2)Press the "POWER" switch twice to select the "IG-ON" mode while holding down the trip meter reset button. Hold the button down for at least 5 seconds.

Toyota Prius over rated? by jwindmon

I know that the Toyota Prius is over rated because I used to sell them. You would be better off buying a car that gets 30+ mpg. They used to tell us that in the meetings when I worked at toyota. They thought it was funny. It makes perfect sense. Why pay $10,000 more on a vehicle at the time of purchase just to save pennies at the pump over time. It takes YEARS to just break even when you buy a prius. I wouldn't ever buy a prius. I just cant see paying $25,000 for a prius when I can get a a SX4 (which is rated better than the over priced corolla) for $15,000. You do the math!!! -Jerome Windmon

Is that the Suzuki you are referring to? That thing is so ugly. In that class I'd get the Rogue. The Prius is a great car for the price.

Some people just are not cut out for understanding complex ideas. From your post it's not a wonder that you busted out. Your understanding is too simplistic to be valid.....and your data is wrong thus your analysis is faulty. Just do the math.
 
Research will help you.....somewhat. But consider this. The success of the Prius continues unabated so somewhere you missed something.

I can't believe I fell for it. Your well reasoned argument makes it all seem so clear now. I shall go to my nearest Suzuki dealer and trade my Prius in against an SX4 on Monday. If only I had been able to consult you before I made such a huge mistake I might have been able to avoid it.
