None of this makes sense, company's and dealerships are money driven. The dealership makes money when you drive your car over there curb not when they order the car. This has "not" happened to a lot of people so I'm thinking there delivery process somewhat works for most people. IMO you had a...

From the picture you can see that this is a regular "button mount" rear view mirror, the button are all the same size (so far), so you can use any button mount mirror to replace your's, you can get one from a Jeep, Prius, or a Nissan and it will fit and work (Think bone yard). I bet if you look...

Well said, Thank You

Your right for A, it's designed and built that way. Bad for us and good for them, but if I was to build a product that is a great business model. As for B, I have had really good experiences with Toyota and Honda for battery warranty (fleet) and I haven't heard much complaining from other...

The big point here is a company built a product and gave us the user parameters and product ability's, if this doesn't fit your needs please don't buy the product. Wish list are great let the company know what you really want like "I want my Prius to go from 0 to 60 in less than 2 seconds", "I...

I think Nate is comparing apples to oranges Thousands of dollars, really The capability's of the car was well known a very long time ago and I will not fault them for delivery of the vehicle after a Tsunami of that size. But I do hope Nate finds something that fits his needs.
