		<description>So now that this story is over 2 years old, did they ever get the Honda Insight, and are they happy with it. Needs a follow up.

I like the 2010 prius alot, but the insight is cheaper. just wondering if anyone reads this if they have tested both cars out yet</description>

		<description>Thanks for the comment Mike. 

Maybe car dealers should be doing this kind of thing! If they were blogging and open to discussing issues then I think that would go a long way to solving problems like this. I think the biggest complaint of customers is that when something goes wrong they don&#039;t feel like anyone at the dealership or car manufacturer is listening. Just my humble opinion.</description>

		<description>Well I guess two sides to every story. It&#039;s too bad Car Dealers don&#039;t make these types of boards to put the stories about retail customers.</description>

		<description>I hear you Dave. I actually now own a Prius. I like it a lot. 

The fact is though that I was treated very very badly by a dealer (who had my deposit cheque). And when I brought this to the attention of Toyota they did nothing to help fix the situation. 

In a funny twist of irony I recently met the president of Toyota. I told him what had happened and he was apologetic. He said that like anything there are some bad eggs in their network of dealers - and I had found one!</description>

		<description>Wow - that&#039;s terrible Denyse! I&#039;m really sorry to hear that.

It seems like there are some real dirtbag dealerships around. I guess it&#039;s hard for them right now - they&#039;re probably not selling many cars and are needing to layoff staff etc. like everyone else. Still, good customer service is how you build a business, right?!</description>

		<description>Well consider yourself lucky! I did buy a 2009 prius in October of 2008. Mid november I brought it to get serviced because I can not put gas in it. It will only allow 5 cents at a time and then the pump shuts off. Also the gauge says it is full then. This happens at all pumps. The dealership has had the car for 3 months now - no fix - their policy is no loaner car - Toyota canada said do not call back! I will never buy a Toyota again.</description>

		<description>True. And I just read on treehugger that it is going to have the same engine as the insight. Finally, some decent options in the small hybrid car market!</description>
