Received my Toyota manufacturer's 7 yr / 100,000 from Warranty Shack
OK!
Half of my warranty shack purchase has arrived. My 7 year / 100,000 mile warranty arrived in the mail from Toyota Financial so everything is cool. I’m just waiting on my Pre-paid maintenance vouchers to arrive then I won’t have to worry about anything for my car for the next 4 years. Hellz yeah.
Verdict on buying Toyota warranty and prepaid maintenance: Warranty Shack is legit
Final costs were $875.00 for the pre-paid maintenance and $990.00 for the 7 year extended warranty. Total outlay $1865.00. That is a princely savings of $785 when compared to the $2,650 price tag at City Toyota in Daly City, CA.
Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) in California
Today around Los Altos I saw a plug-in hybrid Prius parked outside. It had some flyers posted on the windows touting 100 MPG. The owner saw us looking at his car and he desperately wanted to give us a flyer. Maybe he gets a commission.
According to the driver, converting your Prius to PHEV costs approximately $10,000 and it can be done by somebody in San Francisco. He also added that within Toyota recently stated that converting to PHEV does not void your entire warranty. I have not verified the validity of those claims.
CalCars is a California website with PHEV information.
