    It's official Prius V discontinued :(

    Finally we can put all the rumors to rest

    "After six years and nearly 160,000 units sold in the U.S.," Toyota's East Coast communications manager Corey Proffitt told Green Car Reports, "the decision was made to end Prius V production for the U.S. and Puerto Rico this December."

    But, he added, "it will continue to be sold in other global markets." Proffitt couldn't provide information on the fate of the Prius V in the Canadian market, however.

    So I wonder if this will make all the used prices drop ?

    My neighbor has a new dark blue one. I told her it was the last, she did not know. 2 Prii on the court now.
