Default Re: Thinking of getting an older prius

80K miles on a Prius. Not a smart idea.
How much of the tranferable warranty is intact? At 100K yu really have a money pit on your hands.

Plan on $5200. for a Battery Pack, if out of pocket. The going price.

Heavily marked up because the Nickel gets mined from Canada , then ships around the world to several places to get processed and built. Then returns to the US. It gets handled as Toxic material while in transit.


Research Used hybrids before yu jump into one.
Just buy a Corolla. Yu will get over 30MPG without trying and yu don't even need A "Special" technique with your gas pedal as in a Hybrid.


BTW, I thought that those California HOV single use exempt stickers were GONE, and discontinued!!! Like not given out anymore dude.
Since like 2007!

I live in NY and I know this.

YU missed the boat! It left a long time ago.

The Carpool Lanes are all backed up incase yu havn't noticed. Theres no more room for yu.
