2007 Toyota Prius / 1 Owner / Backup Cam, Jbl Sound, Bluetooth / Very Clean on 2040-cars
Lafayette, Indiana, United States
This is a one of those rare, one (nerd) owned 2007 Toyota Prius in Seaside Pearl blue. The car has 116k miles on it. It has been well cared for and has had all it's regularly scheduled maintenance as per Toyota's specs. Runs perfectly! It has brand new tires! The car has the "Package 3" which includes the 9 speaker JBL sound system with AM/FM/6 CD Changer (and iPod/mini plug input), Satellite Radio, Bluetooth Audio & Hands Free (i.e. for your iPhone), Vehicle Stability Control, Smart Key Fob, Alloy Wheels and the coveted Rear Backup Camera! Clean and clear title. If you have any questions, feel free to call me. I'm happy to talk about the car and help convert you into a Prius owner :) If you haven't already, check out the PriusChat.com forum! That is a trove of great Prius information. If it doesn't sell, it's going to the dealer as a trade-in so Buy It Now! Pickup/Delivery: if you're not local but within 250 miles and cannot pickup the vehicle for some reason, we can negotiate delivery. David 818.448.8392 On a personal note (since buying a car is a very personal experience): I'm an economist and somewhat of a nerd. The instant fuel economy screen has made driving this car somewhat of a video game trying to maximize the MPG. It's quite fun! I'm also the sort of person inclined to "buy once, cry once" and be a good steward of the things I've invested my money, time and energy into. This car has been no exception. |

Despite slow sales, no new Scion models in near-term pipeline [w/poll]
Mon, 09 Sep 2013According to a top Toyota executive, the Japanese automaker will not be introducing any fresh Scion models in the near future, Reuters reports. As of August, Scion sales for this year were down 1.6 percent from 2012 and accounted for only 0.3 percent of Toyota's overall US sales. And last month, Toyota Motor Sales USA Senior Vice President Bob Carter informed the 1,000 dealers who carry Scion that they can drop the brand without penalty.
However, never fear - Carter has assured that, while nothing new is coming for at least six months, the company is still very committed to the quirky Scion brand. Toyota launched Scion, which targets the youth market, in 2003, and sales peaked in 2006. The brand currently has five models, with the 2013 best-sellers being the FR-S sports coupe followed by the tC sedan and xB hatchback.
What do you think about Toyota's decision to hold off on introducing new or refreshed Scion models? Are they heading in the right direction, or does this spell doom for the funky Gen Y brand?
Expedition drives from Russia to Canada over North Pole...
Tue, 21 May 2013No, a Ford Expedition did not drive from Russia to Canada via the North Pole, but that's exactly what a team of intrepid explorers accomplished recently. Using specially-modified buses with massive tires, the group slowly drove 2,485 miles in 70 days over drifting ice, occasionally using a pickaxe to clear a path and staying on guard for chasms that could open up and plunge the team into the frigid arctic waters. Average speeds were about 6 mph, "at the speed of a (farm) tractor." While the big tires technically allowed the buses to float if the need arose, the team preferred to stay out of the water to keep the suspension from getting coated in thick, hard ice. Falling in on foot would mean almost certain death.
According to Phys.org, the buses were powered by Toyota diesel engines, but were built with prototype parts from a previous driving expedition to the North Pole. Right now, the machines are parked in a garage in Canada's Resolute Bay while the the team rests up with family back home. They plan to continue their trek to back across the Bering Straight to Russia. If successful, the team may eventually offer a version of their buses for commercial sale.
Vote to unionize Toyota Canada plant faces delay
Fri, 04 Apr 2014Volkswagen isn't the only automaker with high-profile unionization efforts afoot at one of its North American factories. Unifor, Canada's largest private-sector union, is attempting to organize Toyota's factories in Ontario, reports Reuters. A vote was originally set for next week, but Unifor has apparently found more workers eligible to vote, delaying the proceedings. It hasn't rescheduled the ballot yet, but claims there are 7,500 employees with the right to vote, with over 3,000 having already signed union cards.
Toyota is pushing against organizing, saying that workers already have a payment and benefits near the top of the industry, and noting that it has never laid off a permanent employee in Canada. Unifor has reportedly countered by saying that about a quarter of the workforce is operating under a temporary contract, which receives lower benefits.
The automaker has three factories in Ontario - two in Cambridge and one in Woodstock. To form a union, a majority of eligible employees must vote to join Unifor. If successful, they would be the first wholly owned Toyota plants in North America to be organized. Previous attempts to unionize the Japanese automaker's Canadian factories in 2001 and 2008 failed due to lack of support.
