My windshield glass had to be replaced and the Toyota Parts Department gave me a price of $1,000.00. I laughed, too. The total cost at a glass replacement store near by was $185.00 including the installment. I drive a 2008 Touring PK6 and should of have bought a PKG 4. The navigation system was a waste of money. I sometimes need to go to map quest to get a second opinion for locating addresses. Leather well... it was my first car with leather seats. PRUSA

I have been driving my Prius "Touring" PKG 6 for about 2 months and still learning about all the gadgets that this beauty came with. I have a question for you: When you coast, do you use the "B" brakes or do you use the normal brakes? I haven't use the "B" brakes because the dealer told me that you only use it down the hill. Well, we don't have to worry about any hill here in Savannah, Ga. Thanks in advance for your help. PRUSA

Re: windshield glass for my 2008 Touring Prius [stevegold]

by prusa on Wed May 07 17:44:25 PDT 2008

The total cost was $285.00 including tax. The truth is that it even looks better than the original one. You can't even tell the difference! So.... (silly me) I was going to pay $715.00 for the Toyota sticker that you can't even see and that is at the bottom of the windshield. Well, today... had to place my post decals (to enter the military post) so the Toyota sign was not going to be visible anyway. Thanks for giving me your opinion. Now, I am back to enjoying my Prius. It is people like you that make this forum so important. PRUSA :blush: :)

Re: Don't buy Touring [bob104]

:) I totally agree with you. I wish I could turn back the clock and start all over again with the dealer. I am in love with my Prius (bought the Touring PKG 6) and my next car will definitely be another Prius, but not the Touring Edition. I wish I had seen your email at the time I was about to buy my Prius. It is now too late for us, but not too late for those who are in the buying process.
