That’s right, no more need to wait. Just visit your local dealer and take home a Prius today. But don’t wait, because with available special offers, dealer inventory won’t last long.

It sounds like the demand for hybrids is softening, at least for Toyotas. Maybe with the tax credit dropping over time and gas prices dropping, demand just isn't as great for hybrids. Kind of ironic, with the President's State of the Union speech pushing the saving of gas. You would hope more people would want hybrids, but MOST people apparently are pretty stupid.
The American public is a collective moron with a very short memory span.
