Used Hybrids
I don't hang out in this group much, so I apolgize in advance if this has been asked.
What is the low-down on buying a used Prius? I've heard that the more miles on it, the more the batteries start to have problems hold a charge. And if you try to replace the batteries, it often costs more than what the car is worth in the Blue Book.
I've got my eye on a first-generation Prius to use for commuting and I want to make sure it is a good investment.
