Prius

My wife just came home in a 2011 Prius V. What is the best site for Prius info that is most useful?

First Toyota in my stable.

There was a period of about a year I was researching and considering buying a Prius.

I'm trying to figure out how one opens a locked Prius if the battery dies in the remote.
Give her some props, traded in an 04 Silverado, 14mpg average, her friend gets 53mph in an 09 Prius.
I still have my 92 LSL going very strong @ only 126k miles.

Re: Prius

All I can say is sell it before the batteries go dead. At that point the 7 miles to a gallon you saved over a small gas powered car is gone down the tubes . Sister in law has a 5 speed 2003 Honda Civic that gets 40 MPG highway and has 160,000 carefree miles on it. JMHO

Re: Prius

I'll post a report on this thread when I figure what the h*ll this car does. I don't know how to turn it "OFF" so far. I'm learning to laugh in a new crazy way.

Obumbler is going to establish a permanent free program to exchange old electric/hybrid batteries plus a tax credit for keeping air in the tires. I just love Obozo stash money.

What don't you understand about "YES" ? Any weekend, all weekends. What could compare with ID theft by a Toyota dealer, aka crime scene......Where the h*ll is CSI? Probably Columbia with the pros.
