    I have owned this Prius 2011 Model 2 for 3 months .
    I am averaging 57 miles per gallon.

    Have had no problem with this car.
    The car even survived getting rear-ended by a SCHOOL BUS
    while I was stopped at a RED light.

    Now I just wish the dealership people wll correct the mistake
    of putting SOMEONE ELSES name on the title after I paid CASH
    for this car.

    So I guess technically I don't own the car yet that I paid for in FULL.

    Happy driving,

    Excellent!

    For my understanding - what do you mean by "on the title"? on the title of what? what it is meant by "title"?

    "title" means "title deed". The piece of magic paper which says you own the car.

    Sorry to hear that, always a shock, doubly so with a near-new vehicle. Was it just a tap, or?

    Doesn't seem like they set high enough standards for the their school bus drivers...:rolleyes:

    It was a nice jolt ! Seems the guy decided to read a book while at the stop light and rolled about 5ft into my rear end.

    I actually felt sorry for him after I got done yelling at him,calling him every new car drivers WORST NIGHTMARE.
    Passing by cars even where calling him names it was actually comical.

    And we pay extra for that. Hope you haven't submitted your satisfaction survey. It's either the dealer's or MVC's fault but since they insisted their Title Clerk submit everything on line I'd blame the dealer and stay on top of them until you get a good title.

    There was an error on the title for my '89 Delta 88. The dealer wasn't happy that they had to get it fixed.

    Welcome to PriusChat. :welcome: In your name userid descriptions, did you intend to label your Prius as a 2012?


    Correcting the name on your title may be your biggest challenge! So what happens if the police stop you and their license check shows you're not the owner of the car? Good luck :D
