Sold! (Assuming they come back to pay the balance & pick it up on Friday.)

I got a bit less than I was hoping -- didn't break even on this one.

So, if you could rent a 2004 Prius for $42 a month for a year including maintenance, would you? Because that's what it ended up costing me to dip my toes in Toyota hybrid waters.
