    Is it just me or have others routinely gone to the Toyota website checking for the Prime to move from "Upcoming Vehicles" to the regular line-up? Also, waiting for the [Build] button to show up.

    It just moved.

    I've been checking routinely for the Prime to be officially added to the site's lineup.

    Glad to see it there now.

    works well, but i dislike how the top two thirds of the screen is fixed, and i'm scrolling through the bottom one third for choices.

    i thought the destination charge was included in the price?

    I don't think anyone includes the destination charge in the price now. GM included it when they released the price of the gen2 Volt, and likely other models from around that time, but it appears they gave up on that tactic.

    Car companies haven't included delivery fees in advertised MSRP for quite some time. It was a refreshing surprise when GM did so for the Volt.

    In Canada, Quebec is the only province that requires an "all-in" price for vehicles. This means everything except taxes.

    I built mine a few days ago when the Toyota Prime Build site went live. But, I found that after I built the car, I couldn't start it or drive it anywhere. It just sat there on the screen. What did I do wrong?
